Wow! I had the pleasure of interviewing Cid V. Brunet, a person I have been following and admiring for a few years now. It was so much fun to talk about the fears, challenges, and processes we both used in writing our memoirs. But the conversation went even deeper as we shared our perspectives on addiction, trauma, sex working with a disability, dating in the sex industry and more. Learn about the projects we are working on now. This was definitely a heart-to-heart talk about all things vulnerable and surprising in sex work and life.
Cid V. Brunet is a Canadian author, who wrote: “This is my Real Name” about their experiences working as a stripper in Canada. With recent poetry publications in CV2 and Eavesdrop magazine, they currently work as the editor of Reviews at PRISM, an international literary magazine Cid is currently working on a historical fiction novel.
Cid spent 10+ years working in the sex industry. They primarily worked as a dancer at strip clubs across Canada. Their memoir describes these experiences through their protagonist, Michelle. This Is My Real Name is described as, “Intensely personal.” It, “demystifies stripping as a career with great respect and candour, while at the same time exploring the complex, sex-positive relationships that make it meaningful.”
