    Somebody should write a non-fiction book about .....

    the different wrestling/sexfighting scenes or video production companies. i would be particularly interested in knowing about dww. they made the strangest and most fulfilling videos with interesting settings. im sure there are some insiders who visited this forum. or are still around. it would be great to know how women are hired. how and where the videos were shot. the exploitation aspect. love affairs etc.

    I must start with the obvious, as it's mostly an over/under thing. The rate for writing a book on any subject, when the author isn't that talented or is new to the business is 15k, regardless of length, which pretty much excludes the product being an actual book. If you think about it, a thousand or two thousand fans would have to band together to make it a reality.

    Just as a wayside, non-fiction books do not, under any circumstances, glorify exploitation, or be as salacious as to dish about love affairs, that's pulp fiction. Since today data protection has become more strict for anyone doing business in the EU, so it's not very likely they would reveal how and where they hire. Even if they could, the probably wouldn't to protect the women from creeps.

    i understand. but it can be an anonymous insiders account with fake names which only the fans would understand. it would have to be a labor of love.

    And again, think back on Fire and Fury. The author has a flair for sensationalism, so some parts were of course embellished, yet he did get valid access to every area. Even so, after reading the finished product, and it become a bestseller, the author was still being sued. In other words never underestimate how much people can dislike reading the truth about themselves.

    Anybody who's credible, will ask a writer, or more likely their publisher for a portfolio, and if they're talented, but lesser known, it's not uncommon they ask for a secondary contact through which they can influence what the publisher can put into the book. To compare, take Leonard Bernstein. He wrote All the President's men with his coauthor Woodward, where the subject was of national interest, so naturally there were fewer hoops (though of course they still lawyered up), but about a good decade later he wrote a book about John Belushi, that formed the foundation for a movie called Wired, and he did not interview anybody in person, just took secondary accounts. Now that's a recipe for getting sued.

    What you could do is write a fictional account about fictional people in companies, carefully weighing in how recognizable it can get legally without drawing ire from anyone involved. Writing a tell all is always for people who have a built up reputation to risk, so they're protected.

    i guess you are right. maybe i should write about what went on behind the scenes using my imagination. it could be narrated from the point of view of two girls.

    What I do in a situation like that isn't simply replacing a company name with a soundalike, but go behind and find the essence why it was named as such and then come up with my own.
