The Amsterdam Diaries receives a lot of feedback from readers, both men and women, and it has included a lot of very interesting characters, including: authors, journalists, artists, bloggers, a poet, a film director, a TV producer, academics, students, researchers – and prostitutes, along with a host of people who never declare their focus.
Among the correspondents are girls (early twenties) who want to engage on a level beyond conversational. That includes photos (thank you Mr Smartphone), which become increasingly erotic and raw, alongside videos (thank you, thank you, thank you Mr Smartphone), which quicken the pulse. One of these was Lia Mara. Her initial contact appears over on the Comments Page.
The actual conversations drift from Q & A emails to sharing thoughts and experiences, to WhatsApp messaging to telephone conversations, to telephone sex, watching pornography together (hundreds of miles apart – the Gina Gerson sequence in The Long Night of Abby Taylor is a favourite) and, on occasion, a face to face meet up – and I don’t mean via Zoom.
The shame is that I’ve been unable to share the models’ output on the blog (privacy, darling). Until now, that is. Lia is not only the Mistress of the Twist in the Tale but also the Mistress of the Camera. And now my co-conspirator (and, of course, I have permission).
Here are a few photos to help readers visualise her diary entries in our book, Nineteen (available as an Amazon Kindle download). Obviously, I’m having to be discrete so readers are denied The Many Faces of Lia. Sorry about that!
