Smutlancer Revenue Report: October 2021

October was a busy month in many ways. A lot going on in my personal life, some big decisions being made, new projects starting (that aren’t related to sex or kink), and a definite increase in our revenue. Overall, it was a good month, and while I might be impatient to get back to previous income levels, I won’t complain about what was accomplished this month, either. Take a look. Kayla Lords, Sex Writer My freelance work is picking up in a manageable way. I’m receiving more inquiries but am also being very picky about what I agree to do....
