Link to the Show / Show NotesThe last thing most people think about when creating an adult product is the written word, unless of course you are speaking about erotic literature. But good writing has so much more importance to adult entertainment then we give credit, and Theresa "Darklady" Reed is here to help spread the WORD that it just may be the salvation of our industry. How so? Well good writing not only sells the visuals on a landing page but it also helps to make a more cohesive and professional level product. Traditionally adult movies have gotten a bad wrap. Why? because they are often without a real plot and lacking in-depth story narrative which could sell the fantasy, even despite the usually dreadful acting job by the talent, and keep the average viewer from hitting the fast forward button on their DVD player. Its no wonder tube sites are such a threat- there is no reason to stick around and watch more than a 3 minute clip!
In the interview we talk about:
-How important good writing is to the adult marketplace.
-What is the difference between writing erotica and writing ads for erotica.
-How writing can change hardcore content to cater to both men and women.
-How the written word fits into the modern web;
--In tubesites and visual-centric mediums.
--In user generated websites and other Web 2.0 properties.
-How a good writer is also your best salesperson on the web.
-How to hire a competent writer and squeeze value from them.
In the news DerbyGrrl is back again for an especially goofy news segment full of oddities:
