Writing for difficult topics

Every writer has a specific preference of topic or genre, for which he/she can write very well. Also, a writer knows about the topics for which he/she is not at all comfortable with.

One of the broadest genres, for which several writers feel uncomfortable, is also a genre which spins up a lot of money. I am talking of adult articles, mostly which are good paying blogs. At several sites I see ads for writing blogs for adult sites, which are extremely voluminous in nature. And have lucrative pays too. I was wondering just yesterday that how can one single writer write 500 erotic blogs per month. (I came across an ad for the same, where a person was looking for a writer).

This also reminds of a conversation, with a prospective client, to whom I asked (as we all do, in our first or second conversations) about the topics we would need to cover. "Don't worry, we wont give you adult topics", he said, and I was like, oh, ok.

And so, today's website which I am going to inform you all is
of Adult Content Writers, who are a bunch of people, specializing in this genre of writing.

I personally feel, that their is nothing so immoral in writing such stuff, like some writers claim. Yes, I will not like to take it up, for the same reason I wont like to write a piece of technology. That is that I don't like/enjoy the topic.

A writer friend suggests that I should place up my own pic somewhere here on this blog. I am not much game for it, but definatley would like to here your opinions on it.

Spill the Tea: Noor and the Silence After Doing Everything right

Noor has done everything she was supposed to do — moved out, built a life, stayed independent. Yet beneath the neat routines and functional success lies a quiet emptiness she cannot name. Part of the Spill the Tea series, this story explores high-functioning loneliness, emotional flatness, and the unsettling fear of living a life that looks complete from the outside. The verandah was brighter than Noor expected. Morning light lay flat across the tiles, showing every faint scuff mark, every water stain from old monsoons. The air smelled of detergent from a neighbour’s washed curtains flapping overhead. On the table, the paneer patties waited in a cardboard bakery box I’d emptied onto a plate. A squeeze bottle of ketchup stood beside it, slightly sticky around the cap. Two cups of tea, steam already thinning. In one corner, a bamboo palm stood in a large terracotta planter. Thin stems. Too many leaves. Trying very hard to look like it belonged indoors. Noor sat down and pulled the chair ...

Why do we crave bookshops when life falls apart? A deep reading of Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop

This article reflects on Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop by Hwang Bo-reum, a gentle novel about burnout, healing, and second chances. Through Yeong-ju and her quiet community, the book reminds you that meaning often returns slowly, through books, people, and ordinary days that begin to feel like home again. Why do so many of us secretly dream of walking away from everything? At some point, usually on a crowded weekday morning or during yet another meeting that could have been an email, you wonder if this is all there is. You did what you were told. You studied, worked hard, built a career, stayed responsible. And yet, instead of contentment, there is exhaustion. Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop begins exactly at this uncomfortable truth. Hwang Bo-reum’s novel does not shout its intentions. It does not promise transformation through grand revelations. Instead, it sits beside you quietly and asks a gentler question. What if the problem is not that you failed, but that you nev...
