Catapult Workshop Reading: Sarah Gerard, Mark Prins, Stefan Orzech, Michelle King, Josh Boardman, & Yvonne Conza
I went to this reading to see Michelle Lyn King and Yvonne Conza, my former workshop mates in Chelsea Hodsonās Essaying Means to Try Nonfiction class. They were badass onstage. Yvonne read an excerpt of her work-in-progress memoir that gave me greater insight into her childhood. Michelle read for the first time, and she had the whole audience engaged and in laughter.

Performance Enhances My Writing
With the intention of video blogging, I purchased a 50ā³ aluminum camera tripod with a universal tripod smartphone mount and bluetooth wireless remote control included.
Here is a test shoot with my iPhone 5s and new tripod:
As you know, Iām in need of a lighting kit and a micorphone. Those will be my next purchases. Film is very important to me. Unlike writing, film is more accessible (not everyone has the same reading level in America, people). It can also feel more intimate. You can really see a person and get a feel for their personality. On top of this, It has a better potential to go viral. For example, this video I did for Buzzfeed as my porn persona has over 3 million views:
I first knew I wanted to be a filmmaker since I cocreated Donāt Erase My History, a documentary about the lack of queer history in public schools. The staged realness of the documenting process sparked this intuitive feeling in me. I just knew that Iād be great at creating porn. Interviewing queer folk required me to be an active listener, to ask the right questions, and frame my guests in an honest light. I knew that the empathy required of me in documentary would compliment pornography. I wanted to be a cinematographer and a director, so I became a porn performer. What better way to learn how to be a director than by getting my behind in front of the lens? Itās like my position on dominating. I wonāt subject my bottom to something Iāve not experienced first as a submissive. All of these skills transfer very well to being a writer, a profession that undoubtedly requires a lot of empathy, observation, and keen listening.
My last writing workshop instructor, Chelsea Hodson, shares this love of performance with me. There arenāt many writers I know that also perform, so I have mad respect for Chelsea. Chelsea also happens to be a great instructor, and she teaches Essaying Means to Try: Nonfiction Workshop at Catapult in NYC.

Literary Beginnings and What Makes a Great Adult Performer: The Wasp Factory's DJ Red Viking Interviews Writer and Adult Performer Milcah Halili (Part 1)
Where are you originally from? Where are you living right now? Where would you like to end up?
Iām orginally from the Bay Area. Right now Iām in Portland, Oregon and I think after my stint in Portland Iām going to want to stay in Los Angeles for a bit.
When it comes to your career as an adult performer, because I know you started doing camming and then you moved on to doing films, I was wondering if you could give my listeners a run down of why the adult industry appeals so much to you.Ā
I read Recession Sex Works from TheRumpus.net and I was really interested in how she talked about sex work from a socioeconomics perspective. At the time I was going to a lot of Rumpus events in the city, San Francisco, and they had these porn raffles. I thought that it was really strange that this literary scene introduced Kink into their shows or events. They would do Kink.com porn raffles every month.Ā Back then I had no idea what Kink.com was. I was just completely oblivious. So it was actually the literary scene that give me a window into the porn industry.
How did you decide,Ā OkayĀ this is something Iām comfortable doing in front of the camera.Ā This is what Iām not comfortable with. This is something Iāve a little interest in, but Iām not sure if I want to try.Ā How did you go about navigating the industry?
Choosing to go with camming before I ever did a feature film is what really helped me figure out what IāmĀ comfortable doing, how I like to feel in my body. With camming I feel like I have more freedom.Ā I get to decide how to run my show. I get to decide what I want to do in private.Ā Going into porn and transitioning into doing films,Ā I already had an idea of what I like to do. Iāve always really been into kink so that was really big for me to thenĀ manifest that on camera. Iāve always had crazy kinky fantasies from the time I was young so that was really natural for me to then step into.
Was it easy for you to adapt to working with other performers?
I felt like it was really easy for me to adapt to working with other performers because the performers that I met in the San Francisco Armory were just super warm and friendly. I totally got a feminist vibe with them. So I felt pretty much at home, honestly.Ā I played around before with more independent fetish wrestling videos, so that helped me feel comfortable doing Ultimate Surrender stuff.Ā Honestly it was just a lot of fun. It felt like I was rolling around the mat with pretty girls.
What is the kind connection you like to make with the performer before you guys shoot anything?
The first shoot I ever did with Kink was for Whipped Ass. That was with Felony.Ā I was really nervous my first shoot, and I didnāt really have any idea what I was getting myself into. What really helped was that Felony from the start asked meĀ what my background was, how long I have I been in the lifestyle. She asked me deeper questions.Ā She asked me if doing these sexual acts or doing BDSM was spiritual for me. She picked that up, that, for me, there was a spiritual element to it. She really gotĀ deep into the psychology of why I wanted to do this kind of work which made me feel more comfortable to get deeper into the performance.
Have you worked with anybody whose first time it was on the set? Have you gotten aĀ chance to talk to somebody who this was all new for them in the same way it was new for you?
Yeah, recently I worked in a studio here in Portland where I worked with a newcomer into the scene. What IĀ tried to do for her was to make her feel as comfortable as possible. I asked her kind of the same things Felony asked me like,Ā Why did you join the industry? What are your interests?Ā just to kind of build a rapport with the person I was working with and I know that when I entered the industryĀ I really appreciated the people who held my hand throughout the process and gave me some care before the scene started to make me feel comfortable as I could be. Because I feel like when performers are comfortable and they can just relax into themselvesĀ thatās when they can give their best performance.
