How I became a Deviant Diarist for  Magazine:
It was while I was walking the fine line between being irreverent and irrelevant for the I.T. based Indie Magazine as a freelance journalist
that I did my first feature about the world of Adult Entertainment. I'd visited the
Erotica show in London and having effectively left the PC industry a few
months before I was a bit short of material... Thus a column I entitled Minority Report,
featured in the January 2003 issue of Indie, was born.
Afterwards, my editor asked a few questions, which I happily answered. Little did I know then that the publisher was gearing up to release a trade publication
for the Adult industry. And it is an industry. There's a lot more to it than mucky videos and the dingy sex shops of yore.
It's a business worth literally billions of pounds a year.
Fast forward to October 2003 when my editor asked if I would be going to Erotica again. I hadn't planned to, but I was invited along and tempted to the dark
side with a free trade pass. The deal was they wanted me to do a regular piece for Erotic Trade Only Magazine, starting with issue 6 - December 2003.
For the rest of the story, read on... (And maybe take a peek here.)
