The Internet Escort’s Handbooks

For escorts, by an escort

Amanda Brooks

This is the first series of its kind. A safe and sane in-depth exploration of escort work with the intention of offering options, support; in order to enable escorts to have the best experiences they can while making a good living. Written by a working escort, one can learn from her mistakes, her observations, her successes. Wild stories aren’t contained within, Amanda takes a smart, studied approach to a career that can be both profitable and enjoyable.

These books aren’t how-to guides. Nor are they “make lots of money as an escort!” schemes. This series is loaded with practical information used by real escorts from around the world, with the idea of fostering safe and sane independent Internet escort work.

New or current escorts can enjoy two books filled with information and options, which enable the making of informed choices and sharpened entrepreneurial skills. Clients, the curious, or allies, can enjoy a deeper understanding of escorts and how the business life of an escort can prosper.

I simply can’t find another book like this one that approaches such a controversial career with such honesty, respect and professionalism.

This is not what you can get from a journalist or professional author doing research into this field. This is a world that can not be accessed from the outside. It takes one from the inside to open this door.
