The Real Name of Project X is...
Money Shot. Money Shot started off as a non-fiction book proposal on black porn, but editors were too scared that readers would be too embarassed actually buy it. I suggested that the book cover be a brown paper bag, but no go. However, they all said that the concept would make a great fiction novel, and so Money Shot the novel was born. Black non-fiction is a hard slog these days, so ya gotta adapt.

Hmmm...not my personal favorite shot in the world but I think you've got a great title there for a book that is sure to be a success. *smile* I've often wondered why this so-called "money shot" is important in x-rated films. I'm lookin for the female action. Not the squirt at the end, so to speak..lol..
Congrats on finishing this project. You are definitely an inspiration in determination.. Oh, and I share your love for Breyers ice cream. I can't seem to getaway from eating way too much of the flavored called Dulce de Leche. Whew! LOL... Peace, Anthony *
That money shot is sort of weird isn't it? I've heard from some porn producers that it represents the viewer, and without it, the viewer feels that the scene is either not real, or not complete. It's like watching one of those Cinemax movies (not that I do lol) and seeing them roll over on their sides. It screams fake. My wife says I have too much real life porn information! lol
As for Breyers, this is my last day of eating badly. I bought two slabs of ribs from Philips BBQ in Leimert Park, and killed off the last of some Breyers Cookie Dough. Tomorrow, I go on the L's Get-In-Shape-For-September-Tour. I'm going vegetarian for the next couple of months. So bye bye Breyers!
Aww Lawrence..lol.. I think I'm gonna wait until the end of August before I start weening myself off of Breyers ice cream..lol.. This stuff is just tasting way too good during the summer time. Plus I can buy two for 5 bucks at Ralph's! LOL... I like your choice of BBQ too! Nice way to enjoy the 4th.
That money shot is a very weird thing. Personally I only scream fake when they do too much overdubbing of moaning and groaning..lol.. That drives me up the wall. And too much real life porn info is probably gonna make for a very interesting story. I wonder what your cover will look like since you cant do the brown paperbag thang? :-)
