Lace Curtain: Handbook of the Elite Courtesan

This is a novel I'm working on. It's going to take me a while including lots of research, but I think it will come out great. 1

Inspired by the antics of le Moulin Rouge,
  courtesans, lovers, mistresses,
all your way. 3


LETTER ON FRONT PAGE:
"So,
     I'm writing a novel right now called Lace Curtain: Handbook of the Elite Courtesan . I'm delving away from fiction into reality. It only has a paragraph. But when I can, I shall write more.

     It's a little bit funny how I can write things about this when I've never been in a relationship. I've written love poetry & songs, though I doubt I've ever been in love. Just fascinated. Infatuated. With this, I'm certain. It'd be an interesting read." 4

Canto Introduction: 6

Power lies within the one who has control, as a mistress, you are not chained to anything which is not yours. Including men. 7

Canto Being Choosy: 9

I guess the problem with me and relationships is that: I am never satisfied. I am far too picky. I just can't settle with an ordinary guy. I can't even ponder the thought to date one, nevertheless consider one. He has to be AMAZING.

If I wanted to look around- if I was interested, my stand as follows; two choices: if we are connected, I'd ask about him, learn more and try to be introduced more properly and connect. Social status will help. If they are strange, I shall be around their familiarities and GRAB their attention, being as boisterous, yet calm & charming, and still myself & to make direct eye contact. After I've received his attention ("Who is that girl? He's CAPTIVATED.), I shall WOW him. With my intelligence, with my goals, my views, my edification... MIND first, then emotional beauty, physical beauty, appearances & mannerisms. 10

Once I've captured him, you don't stop there. 11

Will he offer you what you want or what you need? 12

Two very different things. 13

I will not court you just because you hand me everything. 14

In an equal relationship, the plates should be balanced: wow ME . 15

Canto The Ones Who Know What To Say: 17

The ones who know what to say, those are the ones you want to watch out for. 18

They're dangerous. 19

They're articulate with desire and know how to play into your heart. 20

Don't allow romance to captivate your heart and blind your sight. Don't let them be blinded as well. 21

Quotes: "There is no difference between a woman & a man; what we all are are different and the same." 23

"Don't be afraid of a woman who can challenge you."
