Talk:Memoirs of a Cam-Girl - PART 1: Initial Transcripts/@comment-25170312-20150606222338/@comment-5774809-20151217044810

[Sorry it took me a while to reply to these comments. I didn't have notifications on and had honestly spaced on the fact that I posted this story here.]

The concept for Cam Girl actually came from one night when I was at the house of my then-girlfriend's  troupe mate (they did burlesque together) and I needed to write something down, so I asked if there was a piece of scratch paper handy. They were both busy getting ready to go out and the troupe mate quickly handed me this green spiral notebook and said I could tear a page out of it if I could find a blank one.

I was flipping through the notebook and trying to do just that when I noticed the entire thing comprised a single volume of handwritten logs and out of sheer reflex, I read one of the entries (which was pretty much verbatim the first entry that Clarence reads.) That was how I found out the troupe mate made her living as a cam-girl.

She explained the reason for the logs was that she (much like Enid) had specialized in "private viewings" which cost considerably more than just the monthly rate paid by members of the cam hub-site she was affiliated with and said site already had software in place that kept track of pretty much everything for her but it was also notoriously buggy, which is why most of the private chat ladies kept a redundant hardcopy of their logs to ensure they always got paid what they were owed.
