I've made it to Las Vegas and am settled into a nice condo a mile from the Hard Rock Hotel and Convention Center where the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo starts today. My volunteer staff (Can you believe six people have come to help promote my books?) will be wandering the show, talking to models, and working to record the experience as we immerse ourselves in porn. I mean erotic art.
This is seriously tough work. Do you know how difficult it is for a writer to make every character unique and memorable? What do her breasts look like? How big are her nipples? How sensitive? Are they soft or artificially hardened? What scent is she wearing? What do her legs feel like? What do her lips taste like? I'm here at AVN doing primary research for my stories!
And I feel bad that you can't be here as one of my volunteers. Our all-access Industry passes get us into all the seminars like "Premium Platforms: Finding the Next Level of Social Media Marketing", and "From the Bedroom to the Boardroom - Bella French's Path to ManyVids CEO", and "What's the Big Idea? The First Annual Disruptors' Panel".
The show floor includes hundreds of products, talent, and services booths with opportunity to make contact with favorite stars. Yes, I plan to get a hug from Molly Stewart, Kendra Cole, Fallon West, and others. They are here and waiting!
The Adult Novelty Expo-our all-access pass gets us in there, as well-will feature some surprising toys, costumes, sexual aids, and other products that might surprise you. Do you need a pussy-beard? There's a vendor that sells a paste on bush for those who are shaved but want a little hair for the party. Are you in the market for a playroom swing set? One that you can strap your lover into and swing into her? Need new ropes? Any of our five hundred different dildo and vibrator models? I'll be carefully checking out those exhibits, too.
The real work is at the parties. Last night we attended an informal welcome party for the trade and engaged in a lengthy conversation with managers of a Cam Studio, Foxy Dreams, in Columbia who are interested in adapting my books and short stories into fantasy scripts. Yes? Who wants to see Art Étrange drape a model in his studio and have his way with her? I thought so. Tonight, we'll be at the Girlfriends Films 18th anniversary party and will be looking for more contacts.
It seems a shame you aren't here.
So, I'm making it possible for you to attend vicariously. I've opened a private photo display for my few thousand closest friends to see what I see each day of the expo. I'll upload new photos early every day (Pacific Time) and you can tune in to see them. The Pre-Show Registration Day photos are already up. It sets the stage for what we're doing here, but won't get into the real fun stuff until tomorrow. Bookmark the page and come back each day this week.

Send me email if there are things or people you are especially interested in seeing and I'll try to get a photo. Let's party!
