basschick · 05-02-2005, 09:01 PM

this is really good stuff - good questions, great answers. ameliag and her sites bring something i like to our industry

AmeliaG · 05-02-2005, 10:00 PM

11. How many times have you had sex without a condom?

I have never had unprotected sex. I'm a safety girl. I am a fan of condoms and dental dams and, where appropriate, monogamy. I swear.

Great choice. Amelia G got the whole Goth niche on lock!

Amelia is definitly one of my favorite people in the business. These are some questions that i can't wait to see answered! Great pick for an interview, Sleazy!

Faster with the answers, Amelia!

AmeliaG · 05-02-2005, 10:29 PM

12. Is pleasure linked to pain in sexual experience?

As the body's physiological response to aggression and pain is very similar to the body's physiological response to romance and sex, I think it makes all the sense in the world that a lot of people feel a link there. I think a lot more people than most would guess like some pain or domination or bondage, either giving or receiving, in their sex. Still, I don't think sex and pain have to be linked or anything. I'm at least as big a fan of a good massage as anyone.

Personally, I've always been turned on by the outlaw, the outsider, the monster, the ruler, the dangerous lover who could destroy but who chooses not to do so. Probably a metaphor for love in there somewhere.

AmeliaG · 05-02-2005, 10:59 PM

13. What kind of awards have you won for your writing?

I won the all high school English award and I think I might have been a National Merit Scholar

In more recent memory, my short stories have been at least an honorable mention or finalist in award anthologies including Best American Erotica, Best Women's Erotica, Best S/M Erotica, Year's Best Fantasy and Horror, Best Lesbian Erotica, etc. I've written hundreds of journalism pieces for a huge roster of clients from glossy magazines to local newspapers to underground publications to of course web sites. So I know I'm leaving some recognitions out here, but this is what I thought of off the cuff.

Holly Lez! · 05-02-2005, 11:04 PM

Great questions! And a great choice! Amelia is a cool chick!

2HousePlague · 05-02-2005, 11:06 PM

Share some images with us, Amelia -- anything at all!

Yourself, a favorite place, the neighbor's cat -- or just roll the dice...

Great answers so far, BTW --

That's an outstanding interview with an outstanding person.. I am impressed

AmeliaG · 05-02-2005, 11:11 PM

14. How many women/men have you photographed? naked? Of them how many did you have sex with?

With my shooting partner Forrest Black, I've photographed more than 2,000 people. Not sure what percentage were naked. I think I have photographed a few people I was already getting horizontal with, but never did anyone I photographed first.

.

Just like me... and I have always thought I am an insomniac or just have odd sleeping patterns but from your POV it makes sense now.

15. Talk about the honors thesis you did on Cross-Cultural and Historical Vampire Legends as a Paradigm for Aggressive Human Sexuality.

The title hits the main points. Let's just say that my education might have been both expensive and unusual, but perhaps it turned out to be valuable and pertinant to what I do after all.

16. Why did you move around soo much in your youth? In what places have you lived?

I was born in London. I have lived on three continents, in half a dozen countries, and roughly nine states. I guess I just went wherever my family wanted to go and then I got kind of used to seeing the sun set in a new place from time to time. I still love to travel new places.

17. Have you ever killed anyone?

Should it worry me to regularly get asked this question in interviews?

AmeliaG · 05-02-2005, 11:48 PM

18. What's the most outragious thing you've ever done at an adult convention?

I have had a GREAT time with so many of the people who post on GFY and go to the shows and are part of the webmaster community. I suspect my fun night out might be someone else's totally outrageous party.

Webmasters can have a fun night out with me anywhere knowing I won't tell tales about anything they would prefer to have remain private. I do really enjoy the shows thoroughly.

Sometimes I take fun snapshots of the festivities and post those I can at http://www.spookycash.com/fun/

19. How many adult conventions do you attend a year? Which are your favorites?

It really varies year-to-year. I used to occasionally hit the adult shows back when the main one was part of CES. I decide which shows to attend partly based on whether they want me to speak on a panel and partly based on location and partly based on who is creating the event and mostly based on what else I have going on workwise at the time and which of my favorite people are encouraging me to go.

AmeliaG · 05-03-2005, 12:06 AM

20. What was life like living in a punk rock group house?

BLT Group House Issue

21. Have you ever been sued or sued anyone? Discuss.

I try to only do business with honorable people who keep their promises. I am a lawyer's daughter and I keep excellent legal representation on retainer, so I'm not one to shy away from a fight when it is necessary, but legal battles produce negative energy and that is undesirable.

22. Do you personally know all the top goth bands like Evanescence and Marilyn Manson?

I'll spare you the gothy debate over which ones count as goth and which ones count as at the top. Some I hang out with and some I photograph and some I really like as people and some not so much. We are generally at least aware of one another. I am sort of used to this now, but it totally freaked me out the first time, years ago, when I was at this underground club in New Orleans and I wanted to give a copy of Blue Blood magazine to this guy who worked with Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails to pass along to Trent. And the guy told me Trent bought the issue already.

A lot of members of top bands have chosen, not just who they bring backstage, but their actual girlfriends off of Gothic Sluts and Barely Evil Blue Blood girls get recognized.

23. What kind of car do you drive? Pics

Photos of me with my car by Forrest Black. Article about why this is my ride at this link.

24. How many houses do you own? pics

Oddly, zero. I used to have the notion that such purchases required one to pay everything up front and, having moved a lot as a kid, I also wasn't sure I wanted to commit to staying any one place. Buying some property is definitely on my to-do list, so people with more of a clue than yours truly in such matters are heartily invited to give me real estate advice.

amelia was a great choice for an ambush - i love the questions and all of amelia's answers so far are perfect - just what i'd expect from here, what a great gal.

keep it coming!

AmeliaG · 05-03-2005, 02:25 AM

25. What did you end up on TV and radio for?

I'm told I give pretty good sound bites and some television producers like to do coverage such as a segment on me at work shooting vampire dominatrixes or green-haired lovers. I enjoy discussing topics from subculture fashion to photographic art to business ethics to the potential of emerging technology.

Different interviewers are interested in asking me different specifics of course, but it all tends to be about Blue Blood projects. I think the only exception was a game show I competed in on military television; otherwise I have always been on television and radio for press about my various artistic and cultural endeavors. I was on a number of shows during a time period when I didn't have TV, so I don't think I saw the final cuts for various appearances on HBO and FOX and MTV. I've done radio all over the U.S. and I'm glad I don't usually record that because I think I would just be all self-conscious then.

I should probably do more TV shows, but I try to be careful about who I say yes to. I've certainly had to turn down offers from Playboy and Jenny Jones and the like when I felt the depiction of my community would be too inaccurate and embarrassingly disrespectful.

AmeliaG · 05-03-2005, 02:53 AM

26. What happened in the 4th grade?

When I was in 4th grade, my parents put a stop to the business a friend and I were planning when we cut up a number of my friend's mom's boyfriend's magazines and glued the pages to construction paper. We had intended to distribute before my appalled parents threw out our little crafts project.

Anyway, I had the entrepreneurial spirit from a very young age.

27. How often do you have sex a month and with how many different partners? male and female

Why would I have sex? I sale naughty sites on the interweb.

And what sorts of magazines were these? Describe the pictures you cut out and mounted?

I guess I left that part out. My little friend and I cut up these very glossy and very pervy European hardcore fetish magazines. We didn't really know what the photos were of, although we thought the costumes were great and we were pretty sure photos of naked ladies was merch which would move at our elementary school.

AmeliaG · 05-03-2005, 06:05 AM

28. Why do you live in LA?

There is a certain quality to the sunlight here which I really enjoy. In LA, I can get delivery food until 4am. The sushi is plentiful. There are no legal issues with being in this business in LA, at least not at my end of the spectrum. When I first moved here, I was really into the fact that Los Angeles is home to some of the best photo labs in the world, although that becomes less of an issue in a more and more digital world. The best thing about Los Angeles, however, is that no one assumes people like me are supposed to either mainstream or become total losers after a certain age. Salespeople and waiters in LA will not assume that punk rock equals can't afford it. I have my own internalized punk rock issues with accepting success, but Los Angeles is friendly to punk rock success.

AmeliaG · 05-03-2005, 06:53 AM

I'm finishing a quick spot of work, having breakfast now, hitting TiVo, and going to sleep. In roughly that order. I'm tuckered out. Rest of the answers when I'm back online

This is so true about LA. I can go to Tiffanys with my best friend who has a tattood face and a blue mohawk and get treated like gold

You were in a different one. Mine has a rubber bat inside. But you still helped me fulfill my fantasy by hopping in the trunk!

29. Being at the top of the game in Goth, who do you look up to?

Looking up can imply a lack of self-esteem, but some people I deeply admire are Madonna, Marie Curie, Jay McInerney, William Gibson, Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino, Donald Trump, Larry Flynt, my parents, my grandparents. Actually, I guess there is a pretty long list of people I admire and an even longer one of those I respect.

AmeliaG · 05-03-2005, 09:48 PM

30. Talk about the mental state of most goth models as compared to most other models in the adult business.

I probably don't have the perspective to accurately compare as I don't accept model submissions from girls who are at all standard issue looking, unless they are really special in some way. From what I've read on the boards and in the trade mags, it is my impression that some of my models may be a bit wilder and more dangerous than the average I suppose.

A lot of the people I photograph are not models though. In many cases, the only publisher people in my community are interested in being photographed for is Blue Blood and that has been the case for years. I tend to be impressed by a person's accomplishments within the scene and their individual style and star quality. This tends to mean they are something else before they are models.

abyss_al · 05-03-2005, 09:51 PM

great read

AmeliaG · 05-03-2005, 10:05 PM

31. Why do you come to GFY?

We first discovered GFY in our referrer stats because people kept posting links to Blue Blood content and talking about how great our photography was. I figured any place where people admired my work that much was at least worth checking out. I found GFY a great way to meet other people involved in the adult Internet. I guess I'd met some before at shows and working for various big publishing houses, but I really enjoy the personal touch on GFY. Even with the proliferation of boards, GFY is still the most active and tends to be the most productive for me. I guess some people find GFY too rough, but, except for the occasional excess of sexism, I find GFYers quite refreshingly straightforward. I've been doing what I do for a long time and it used to be a heck of a lot harder than it is now. Plus I'm punk before I'm goth, so I'm not overly thin-skinned.

I think the internet business is pretty perfect for go-getters who don't totally fit the mold and I think it is really cool how many people in online adult have rich life experiences I can either really relate to or be interested in or both. When I have time, I really enjoy reading the boards and going to the parties. I'm enjoying the Ambush Interviews now too because they are providing an interesting extra depth.

In summary, I am entertained by GFY and I also like to do some business at the end of the day.

AmeliaG · 05-03-2005, 10:23 PM

32. What turns you on in a guy? a girl?

Sending SpookyCash sites a minimum of 20 joins a day! That's hot!

Seriously, although there are different physical characteristics I like in each, the main traits I like are pretty similar. I am attracted to personal strength of character and personality, integrity, style, eloquence, straightforwardness, creativity, guts, intelligence, capacity for passion, appreciation of spectacle, curiousity and interest in the world around them, a sense of adventure, quirky hobbies, workaholism, and the ability to experience pleasure and have a good time.

I am a lawyer's daughter and I keep excellent legal representation on retainer, so I'm not one to shy away from a fight when it is necessary, but legal battles produce negative energy and that is undesirable. 22. Do you personally know all the top goth bands like Evanescence and Marilyn Manson? I'll spare you the gothy debate over which ones count as goth and which ones count as at the top. Some I hang out with and some I photograph and some I really like as people and some not so much. We are generally at least aware of one another. I am sort of used to this now, but it totally freaked me out the first time, years ago, when I was at this underground club in New Orleans and I wanted to give a copy of Blue Blood magazine to this guy who worked with Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails to pass along to Trent. And the guy told me Trent bought the issue already. A lot of members of top bands have chosen, not just who they bring backstage, but their actual girlfriends off of Gothic Sluts and Barely Evil Blue Blood girls get recognized. __________________ GFY Hall of Famer AltStar Hall of Famer Blue Blood's SpookyCash.com Babe photography portfolio

Article about why this is my ride at this link. 24. How many houses do you own? pics Oddly, zero. I used to have the notion that such purchases required one to pay everything up front and, having moved a lot as a kid, I also wasn't sure I wanted to commit to staying any one place. Buying some property is definitely on my to-do list, so people with more of a clue than yours truly in such matters are heartily invited to give me real estate advice. __________________ GFY Hall of Famer AltStar Hall of Famer Blue Blood's SpookyCash.com Babe photography portfolio

I'm told I give pretty good sound bites and some television producers like to do coverage such as a segment on me at work shooting vampire dominatrixes or green-haired lovers. I enjoy discussing topics from subculture fashion to photographic art to business ethics to the potential of emerging technology. Different interviewers are interested in asking me different specifics of course, but it all tends to be about Blue Blood projects. I think the only exception was a game show I competed in on military television; otherwise I have always been on television and radio for press about my various artistic and cultural endeavors. I was on a number of shows during a time period when I didn't have TV, so I don't think I saw the final cuts for various appearances on HBO and FOX and MTV. I've done radio all over the U.S. and I'm glad I don't usually record that because I think I would just be all self-conscious then. I should probably do more TV shows, but I try to be careful about who I say yes to. I've certainly had to turn down offers from Playboy and Jenny Jones and the like when I felt the depiction of my community would be too inaccurate and embarrassingly disrespectful. __________________ GFY Hall of Famer AltStar Hall of Famer Blue Blood's SpookyCash.com Babe photography portfolio

When I was in 4th grade, my parents put a stop to the business a friend and I were planning when we cut up a number of my friend's mom's boyfriend's magazines and glued the pages to construction paper. We had intended to distribute before my appalled parents threw out our little crafts project. Anyway, I had the entrepreneurial spirit from a very young age. 27.

AmeliaG Too lazy to set a custom title Join Date: Jan 2003 Location: Los Angeles Posts: 10,547	28. Why do you live in LA? There is a certain quality to the sunlight here which I really enjoy. In LA, I can get delivery food until 4am. The sushi is plentiful. There are no legal issues with being in this business in LA, at least not at my end of the spectrum. When I first moved here, I was really into the fact that Los Angeles is home to some of the best photo labs in the world, although that becomes less of an issue in a more and more digital world. The best thing about Los Angeles, however, is that no one assumes people like me are supposed to either mainstream or become total losers after a certain age. Salespeople and waiters in LA will not assume that punk rock equals can't afford it. I have my own internalized punk rock issues with accepting success, but Los Angeles is friendly to punk rock success. __________________ GFY Hall of Famer AltStar Hall of Famer Blue Blood's SpookyCash.com Babe photography portfolio

Looking up can imply a lack of self-esteem, but some people I deeply admire are Madonna, Marie Curie, Jay McInerney, William Gibson, Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino, Donald Trump, Larry Flynt, my parents, my grandparents. Actually, I guess there is a pretty long list of people I admire and an even longer one of those I respect. __________________ GFY Hall of Famer AltStar Hall of Famer Blue Blood's SpookyCash.com Babe photography portfolio

AmeliaG Too lazy to set a custom title Join Date: Jan 2003 Location: Los Angeles Posts: 10,547	30. Talk about the mental state of most goth models as compared to most other models in the adult business. I probably don't have the perspective to accurately compare as I don't accept model submissions from girls who are at all standard issue looking, unless they are really special in some way. From what I've read on the boards and in the trade mags, it is my impression that some of my models may be a bit wilder and more dangerous than the average I suppose. A lot of the people I photograph are not models though. In many cases, the only publisher people in my community are interested in being photographed for is Blue Blood and that has been the case for years. I tend to be impressed by a person's accomplishments within the scene and their individual style and star quality. This tends to mean they are something else before they are models. __________________ GFY Hall of Famer AltStar Hall of Famer Blue Blood's SpookyCash.com Babe photography portfolio

AmeliaG Too lazy to set a custom title Join Date: Jan 2003 Location: Los Angeles Posts: 10,547	31. Why do you come to GFY? We first discovered GFY in our referrer stats because people kept posting links to Blue Blood content and talking about how great our photography was. I figured any place where people admired my work that much was at least worth checking out. I found GFY a great way to meet other people involved in the adult Internet. I guess I'd met some before at shows and working for various big publishing houses, but I really enjoy the personal touch on GFY. Even with the proliferation of boards, GFY is still the most active and tends to be the most productive for me. I guess some people find GFY too rough, but, except for the occasional excess of sexism, I find GFYers quite refreshingly straightforward. I've been doing what I do for a long time and it used to be a heck of a lot harder than it is now. Plus I'm punk before I'm goth, so I'm not overly thin-skinned. I think the internet business is pretty perfect for go-getters who don't totally fit the mold and I think it is really cool how many people in online adult have rich life experiences I can either really relate to or be interested in or both. When I have time, I really enjoy reading the boards and going to the parties. I'm enjoying the Ambush Interviews now too because they are providing an interesting extra depth. In summary, I am entertained by GFY and I also like to do some business at the end of the day. __________________ GFY Hall of Famer AltStar Hall of Famer Blue Blood's SpookyCash.com Babe photography portfolio

That's hot! Seriously, although there are different physical characteristics I like in each, the main traits I like are pretty similar. I am attracted to personal strength of character and personality, integrity, style, eloquence, straightforwardness, creativity, guts, intelligence, capacity for passion, appreciation of spectacle, curiousity and interest in the world around them, a sense of adventure, quirky hobbies, workaholism, and the ability to experience pleasure and have a good time. __________________ GFY Hall of Famer AltStar Hall of Famer Blue Blood's SpookyCash.com Babe photography portfolio
