I am a porn writer.
A friend puts it as an "underground porn writer" which adds a bit of mystery to it but still, Im a porn writer... for a local tabloid. Worse, it's an illegal publication, hence, the word "underground." Much worse, Im writing in tagalog. Much, much worse, the editor is the one who's telling me what to write about. Much, much, much worse (hardcore worse) they're usually about incest. *collective ewwwwwww heard all around* yeah I know, my soul is burning in hell as I write this.
How did it all started?
I didnt grow up fantasizing that one day, I'll be writing erotic stories. That is not the stuff normal kids dream about. Although in high school, I was already active in the school paper (anyone here heard about the NSSPC?) and Im keeping a journal and writing suck-y songs.
Fast-forward to last year, I am a member of this yahoo group (mga_pilipinang_hubad) which by its name alone, you more or less know what it's all about *dog-grin* (hey, I'm a guy so cut me some slack here). Someone posted a hot erotic story which, needless to say, became a hit among MPH members. The writer posted the first few chapters of the story but then he just stopped sending, reason unknown to us. Weeks passed and still nadah. It all comes down to me imagining how that story might end. Then, I decided to write my own story (BAGONG KARANASAN) and posted it in MPH, chapter by chapter since I can't write the entire story at once. I have a day job and I need to feed myself. I was surprised by the reactions the readers are sending me thru e-mail. They were asking me for the continuation of the story and if I have other stories pa daw. Some said it's the best story they have ever read although I shouldnt be surprised by that comment, knowing the list of stories they've read ha-ha... OCWs are sending me emails telling me it's the "tanging libangan namin dito sa middle east." But I was also receiving e-mails from readers using their company accounts of some top companies. These just prove that all men are created perverts he he
Then one day, someone sent me an e-mail claiming to be the editor of this tabloid i havent heard of. He's asking if i wanted to send him the stories for possible publication in their tabloid. I figured this guy just want a copy of the story. I think i just ignored the e-mail.
Then he sent me a link to the now-defunct website of the tabloid and there i saw that the story was being published. okay, so its a true publication after all. The price for selling my soul to the devil for writing those stories were negotiated and off i go typing.
This brings us to the present. The tabloid is currently publishing three of my stories, plus I also do fictional headline stories and a column in which readers texts me asking for advice, usually sex-related, and Im supposed to be Mr. know-it-all when it comes to lurvvv-making hahaha you wouldnt believe the texts Im getting. The most absurd are the one asking if his GF will not get pregnant if she takes Cortal downed by Sprite, and this guy asking me how he can fuck his cousin, but I really had to laugh out loud when I read this text of a guy asking me "bakit kaya mabilis akong labasan kapag ipapasok ko na ang akin..." and I was tempted to say that dude! We have the same problem ha ha ha (seriously, this is a confession) But it's hard writing about sex all the time, in tagalog pa. I mean how many tagalog terms can I use for, say, pussy. "hiyas, pagkababae, puke, ekups, lagusan, kweba..." and it's doubly hard if Im not in the mood. So most of the times, I have to make myself horny when there is an urge to write or when there is a deadline approaching. I bet I have written the word "kantutan" more times than all of you, combined. *again, ewww...*
A few info about the tabloid. You wouldnt see it displayed in newspaper stands but it's there. You have to ask for it sa nagtitinda. And the tabloid is usually sold-out by mid-morning. I havent seen the tabloid editor or staff. I just send them my stories thru e-mail then they deposit the payment in my bank account. Everything is hush-hush lest I want to be interrogated by the NBI.
So there. I have to go now because I have a deadline coming.
*chanting silently* Im getting horny... ohhmmm... I'm getting horny... ohhmmnn... Im getting horny... ohmmnnn...
