Publisher's Synopsis
"In this collection of creative nonfiction, people who've tangled with the sex industry write about the complications that arise in the mix of sex and money. From the accounts of love and loss, occupational hazards and tricks of the trade to personal stories of hope, resistance and survival, Prose & Lore is a fiery collection of narratives by people who have walked the walk, and are now telling their tales."
- Daily Loaf, CL Tampa Bay "Top 10 Most Provocative Books"
"The Red Umbrella Project... works to give a voice to those who are in the sex business -- prostitutes, strippers, dominatrix and fetish professionals, porn performers, and anyone who trades sexuality for money or survival..."
- Susan Donaldson James, ABCNews
..".the best reason to pick up Prose & Lore is for the writing, and the stories. Like them or hate them, they are voices we need to hear..."
- Cory Silverberg, About.com - Sexuality
..".it is incredibly refreshing to see that the cover... of Prose & Lore is an amalgam of faces... a small detail that reflects the work that this journal does to humanize those in the sex industries."
- Jessie Nicole, Anonymous Heels
