So I’ve teamed up with someone I’ve worked with here and there. I don’t have time to handle the day to day or promote programs with webmasters. I do like producing product and I feel that my niche is in demand and that I definitely have an eye for it. We’re hiring a webmaster right after the show to revamp the sites and turn them into Ezines, so to speak, plug-ins and working on a plug-in that offers chat with content. All fetish and femdom stuff. These will be available for webmasters free (with ads) or paid (without).

I'm so glad to hear you are going this direction - we've talked about it several times, and I think it suits what you want to do yourself personally, not just business.

Like you said, you enjoy producing the product, just not all the other crap to get the product into people's hands. Its easy in theory to say 'i will just make the content' but you have to have all other areas covered to the same standard.

Its taken me 6 years to see it in my head, to see the direction and for it to fall into place. i knew i wanted to take purve to print one day, but I couldn't even get my shit together enough to keep it running as a successful web business. I thought 'fuck i've failed', but really I have just outgrown the format I was working with. I see the same things in your mind also, you are trying to work in with a business model that died 2 years ago, when your content is ready for the present and future business models. You feel like you are wasting your quality in a paysite subscription model, and the bottom line is YOU ARE.

What I always wanted to do before was more stories and more audio. I think if it’s done right it would appeal to men and women. With wireless the way it is going I think it will be a very hot product. I’ll basically handle operations.

yes please ;-)
not enough of this type of content, and members love it.
i've turned purvette.com into an ebook site, making all of purve's past content into ebooks. an audio ebook would sell really well, and is a very marketable concept.

I’d like to get heavy into the live herb biz here in Florida. It’s huge. Maybe dabble in specialty produce where the big bucks are. If Lady Law and Serge open a wine store I might have to convince them to add a little gourmet market there and truck them over some fine herbs and cheeses. Another hobby I’ve very interested in is making fine cheeses. Don’t laugh! I have two dairy goats right now and I’m just waiting for the little girls to get big enough to breed.

i don't think you'll find many at oprano who will laugh at this idea - we're all sitting here going 'fuck, oprano almost has its own restaurant' - in a good way. ;-) In the last few months since you have started doing the trees you seem to be so much more relaxed ... anything that makes someone that at peace with their own life can't be bad, and you seem to have found that place.

Like you I woke up with a serious fire under my ass. I’m ready to rock and fucking roll!

you know why you are ready to rock and roll? you've taken time out to do something you like ... its amazing what a different perspective does for motivation.

take care gurl, and I hope to visit and try some of those cheeses some day
