[SWAF-Potluck] #facesofprostitution

[Kamile Kapel]

Thanks for sharing this story, Andrew!  I love it!  It makes the sex worker
endearing by showing his vulnerability around tickling which is a lovely
way for people to see a sex worker.

I love how the guy brought an alarm clock and how you returned to the ca
couple of times.  I think it would be even stronger if you mentioned what
time it was each time he looked at the clock so we could share in his
anxiety.  I'm seeing a short film here -- where we see a close up on the
sex workers eyes and then looking at the hands on the clock slowly moving.
I'm imagining a very theatrical looking clock with a bell on top and huge
numbers.

Congrats on getting it published in the Naked Truth!  Do you have a lot of
stories?   Are you published elsewhere as well?
