OK, so Sylvester Stallone was caught with banned substances (i.e. steroids) in Australia. He had 48 vials of human growth hormone which seems like a lot and probably is. He's an old man desperately trying to hold onto the shadow of his youth and he is the only movie star to ever take steroids, ever.

Could you imagine what it would be like if other Hollywood stars took performance enhancing substances?
Like, oh, I don't know, these guys:

Ed Norton? He might be drinking too many lattes, but that's it.

Yeah, I think Brad Pitt does HGH. And that's not his next co-starlet's initials, either.

Spiderman? He's on a high-protein diet...he just takes too many shots in the mouth from steroidal Venice Beach freaks.

Do you like porn? Can you write about it in a clever and original fashion? If so, this might just be your dream job.

We’re a successful internet company looking for a creative and skilled writer to work from our San Fernando Valley office. The job consists of analyzing adult content and writing killer web copy for adult sites.

This is a full-time position with insurance benefits, and is open to gifted writers comfortable dealing with a variety of adult material. Our content covers the full spectrum of adult video (straight, gay and everything in-between), and this position involves working with ALL of it. So if you’ve got hang-ups about any of the above, this isn’t the place for you.

A detail-oriented personality and strong web research skills are a necessity, as is a sense of humor. Knowledge of the adult industry and its talent – past and present – is a major plus.

Beyond that, we’re looking for someone who’s a self-starter but works well with others, embraces challenges, can maintain a positive attitude, is a fast learner – you get the idea.

If this sounds like the job for you, prove it! Send us a resume and three writing samples in the form of three scenes from adult features (your choice which ones) described/synopsized in 65 words or less.

Please acknowledge in your cover letter that you know this is an adult entertainment company and you understand the position involves regular exposure to sexually graphic materials. Submissions that do NOT say as much will be excluded from consideration.

IMPORTANT! Please read our few requirements for application carefully and follow the instructions closely. If you're contacting us without a resume, writing samples that follow the posted guidelines, and the acknowledgment specified in the preceding paragraph, you will NOT be considered for this position. Don't let a hurried reading of this post cost you a great opportunity!

of multi-tasking and analyzing complex materials (on occasion), but also

prefer a style that is comical to make our materials entertaining, engaging,
and fun. On occasion, our writer will create materials for courts and
professional people where the writing style will be more direct, but not too
often.

marketing materials and brochures for our clients and affiliates using

preparation, and submission.

The person whom we hire will be an integral part of our management decision
making team and will work closely with the executive officers. The staff at
our company headquarters is close knit and very easy going. The office is
very casual and everyone has a positive, outgoing, and fun
personality making this an ideal place to work Many of our staff members
has been with us for as long as fifteen years and among our smaller
management team, virtually everyone has been here between 3-8 years.

years ago, and this also applies to our workers. Employee turn-over is low,
and this position has just opened for the first time after 10 years. You will find the job to be fun, exciting, and different every day.
