Those definitely sitting on a goldmine in more ways than one are the ladies of the night (and day) who make a living selling their services. I recently had a sex shop owner contact me. After twenty years in a high street location he is close to calling it a day. He wanted my advice. He has it in mind to, without naming names; take us on a jolly ride on a journey of discovery. He invites us to learn the ins and outs of his many clients varied tastes. I can’t wait; admit it; neither can you.
Many occupations offer promise if all were revealed. You don’t have to be a lady of the night nor bar staff in a seedy club to make money out of your career. Anyone who has ever been in show business will have a rich repertoire of lively anecdotes that will light up the lives of those not so fortunate. What really goes on in the holiday and cruise trades? We want to know.
What tales could you tell? Over the years conversation often has us thinking: why doesn’t he write a book about it: it would be a bestseller. Where you once a policeman, fireman or journalist? Perhaps you or someone you know was a nurse or hotel worker? You could be sitting on a bestseller too. If you don’t do it someone in your trade will and you will have missed the opportunity.
Jacob Tomsky spent eleven years in the hotel industry. Anyone who ever spent a night in a hotel, or is likely to, would be well advised to grab a copy of his book. HEADS IN BEDS: A Reckless Memoir of Hotels, Hustlers and So-Called Hospitality. It is a wart an’ all romp through the hotel trade. There is apparently more goes on in hotels than stolen towels and soaps. Jacob could find himself with a nice top up to his pension when collecting royalties of his book.
If you or someone you know had an interesting life why not put them in touch with me. I am always happy to advise, guide and hold the writer’s hand to that exciting day when his or her book is selling on Amazon. Some have seen it happen in as little as three months.
