Questions/Question 415

Thank you! Would partnering with a sex shop be an option? Essentially delivering manuscripts via private AUG/MSG to a member of the staff and letting them do with it what they will?

I'm thinking, to start, Northly will sell her writing to other Augmented by essentially making f-locked posts, getting the money, then sharing the link.

Since she's not remotely in it for the money, piracy/unauthorized access isn't a concern for her, so if people start sharing the "link" around, she won't be mad or anything (really, she'll be excited people want to read her writing enough to avoid paying/assume they will find her to pay her later) and same with if the sex shop wasn't honest in their dealings.

Does this all track?

That should probably be possible! Sex shops would be somewhat more open to the concept of Augmented-created literature, especially if she shows she has some understanding of grammar and the ability to construct a plot. (Literacy may be the default in the city but being able to write a coherent story (even if the point is sex rather than grand literature) is its own separate skill, and not many have it. This does not stop enthusiastic amateurs from submitting their incoherent porn.)

She wouldn't be likely to make much money through them, and they would be open about that- but they would be honest in working with her, and wouldn't try to cheat her out of her cut.

So yes, all of that tracks!
