lazy saturday

I had a really good Saturday. I met up with a friend and made some new ones. Writing is a lonely occupation, and I've always been a people person. Today was fun because I haven't been going out on weekends. I usually go through two extremes. Some weekends I'll party like a rock star; some weekends I'll be at home in my pajamas.

What does a smut writer normally do on weekends? I don't know about anyone else, but my weekends are usually laid-back. I do the usual things like hanging out with friends, going out to eat, or going shopping. I rarely hit the clubs anymore. Some nights are reserved for big events like all-night parties or pub crawls. I can't party like I used to, but sometimes I still give it a good effort.

Some people may think that smut writers have exciting lifestyles filled with wild parties. If I tell an acquaintance that I write smut, that person's eyes go wide and they say, oh, REALLY?! I can see the gears turning in their head. I know that they're imagining me on the sidelines of a porn set or at a swinger's party. I know because I've received these types of questions. Maybe it's something about me that exudes KINK. Naaah, I don't think so.

Of course the reality is more mundane. My typical Saturday is a cycle of eating, writing, working out, and talking with friends. My weekends aren't filled with adventures, but that's the way I like them.
