Evolution of an escort
Click here for enlarged image of The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch. *Image information at the end of this post. I have been interviewed about being an escort a couple of times in Australia many years ago and not so long ago in New Zealand. I personally love to hear stories of how things…

You can’t please all of the people all of the time. You’ll need to login to enjoy this anonymous phone message It seems not long ago that Covid-19 broke out and we were forced into lockdown, and now we are nearly into level 2. According to the government business website, in level 2, non-medical massage…

What a Way to Make a Living
Hylas and the Nymphs is a 1896 oil painting by John William Waterhouse. So I’m well and truly back into sex work, although with later hours than I have ever worked due to other things I am doing in my life – so I am truly a “lady of the night”. This has brought with…

What’s a nice girl like me doing in a job like this?
So people sometimes ask me, “what’s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?” Well – First of all, the place I work is really rather nice and I can honestly say, I am in the best working situation I have ever had. I set my own hours, my own rates, and…

What’s the deal with female orgasms?
Oh my. To my delight, my phone has been ringing lately with a few gentlemen who actually express that they have an intention for me to also come (or cum, but I prefer the other spelling). I think it is wonderful that for whatever reason, and there are probably many motivations for this, men are wanting…

Seduce me with song
The End of the Song by Edmund Leighton(1902) illustrates the story of Tristan and Iseult, a tragedy about the adulterous love between the Cornish knight Tristan (Tristram) and the Irish princess Iseult (Isolde, Yseult). There are so many secret nerves in the body, that it is impossible to keep track. There is a nerve which…

Why would you want to be a sex worker?
Veronica Veronese* by Dante Gabriel Rossetti painted in 1872 with Alexa Wilding as the model. It is believed to represent “the artistic soul in the act of creation”. I’ve always liked new beginnings although of course generally they are nothing more than a mental reset. So the start of a new year is as good a…

Fear of Fifty
Flidais, my favourite Celtic Goddess, of a voracious sexual appetite Part of us wants to love like the goddesses — coldly and capriciously. Part of us owes allegiance to Kali, eating her lover and attaching his skull to her waist. Part of us wants to love like Juno, scooping up mortal men, toying with them, then…

Where to from here?
Amber O’Hara not ready to turn her back on sex work … yetIt’s hard to believe that it’s almost a year since I embarked again on the sex work journey with certain financial goals in mind. My very first blog post, my personal yet public record of the events related to becoming a sex worker,…

Trying out online advertising?
Gif: early sex work images of Amber O’Hara, aged in late 40s, escort Since I have been advertising in the Press, I have been very happy with the lovely clients who have come to see me. My phone does not ring too much, but my advertisement in the local newspaper’s Escorts column has supplied me…

Step Four – arranging photos
The next step was arranging the photographer. I found an experienced photographer online who came to my premises and took some photos. Although I have already had some test shots taken by friends, the photographer I hired had an amazing camera and lights which has made all the difference. I did not want to pose…

Step Three – room and prices
Photo: Amber O’Hara in her rented accommodation The next thing to get sorted is the accommodation – where will I be working from? Obviously the place needs to be central, private and discrete with plenty of parking. I am very fortunate as I can rent a room at a very discrete and rather luxurious…

Step Two – sorting out ads
I have met a couple of working girls (whose identity will remain secret) through the house where I will be renting a room, and have listened to their feedback about advertising. To start off with (and to keep my independence) I intend advertising in the Christchurch Press’s Escorts’ Column. In my ad, I hope to…

Step One – buying a phone
So before I could do anything, I had to buy a phone. I can’t just sit around fluffing up my hair all day waiting for gentlemen who want my services to find me. Specifically I needed to buy a sim card, as I already have a phone. Because to be an independent escort, you obviously…

Where to from here?
So … I’ve decided to get back into sex work. Apart from a brief spell at Bon Ton in Wellington almost 3 years ago, I have not “worked” since before it was legalised. Back then there was a host of things to worry about, namely arrest and public exposure in the court pages of the…
