[SWAF-Potluck] #facesofprostitution

[Trina Ricketts]

Thanks for guest posting on The Naked Truth, Andrew! Your update on the
legal situation in Canada is one of our most popular posts!

http://www.nakedtruth.ca/2015/03/the-legal-situation-for-sex-workers-in.html

I want to let others know that we welcome guest bloggers, so if you are
interested, let me know. The survey we did in December/January offers lots
of ideas for topics of interest to our audience but if you have something
original, like Andrew's post about his Date with The Tickler, feel free to
submit it. We accept youtube videos and poems too!

If possible, we ask you to include images to go with the post, but it is
not required. Here is more info about submitting:

http://www.nakedtruth.ca/p/contact.html

The deadline for a post to be submitted for the following week's digest is
Friday noon, whenever possible. If it is submitted after that, I cannot
promise anything and your post may be postponed to the following week.

If you are interested in subscribing to receive posts weekly in your inbox,
please do. You will get one digest a week with all the posts from that week
on Monday morning around 5 am or so.

xoxo
