by Sarah Tressler In this collection of posts ripped from her Diary of an Angry Stripper blog, Sarah Tressler writes about her experiences as a Houston-based stripper. Sarah writes well, I've been following her blog for a while. She's become infamous lately for 1) her blog post on getting boring head from Jeremy Piven (Ari Gold on Entourage) and 2) getting fired from her job as a society reporter on the Houston Chronicle when they found out she was a stripper. (Sarah has a Master's degree in journalism.) If you haven't already been following her blog, then this is well worth a read.

I guess I'm in the minority but her writing does very little for me. It tries so hard to be witty and insightful and is full of so many cliche I just have trouble accepting the validity. What kind of educated and intelligent person would say some of that stuff or even admit to it except for personal gain?
Her characterizations of St James and Treasures are on target.
It's rare to find people who like their jobs. Alas, she's not one of them. Interesting read.
"$200 a night is not good money. $300 a night is only OK money. $400 is getting a bit better . . . of course, all of this is tempered by how many hours you spent working the floor in the club."
stripper shit?
Some of it's shit. She's a good looking woman, but not a drop dead gorgeous 10 who could scoop up money no problem. In an competitive environment like Houston I can believe she would be making $100/hour giving what it seems from reading, are tame (at best) one way contact dances. So she's bullshitting about something.

I agree with Jester, that girl tries way too hard to be clever and I had a difficult time keeping my attention focused on reading. It is a difficult read. It just sounds like the exact same recycled shit you see on pink site or the occasional bitter stripper that kicks around here for a week or two. There is nothing fresh about her writing and I actually found her irritating...and not because I didn't like what she was saying. I can appreciate bitterness put to pen if there is talent...this bitch has none as far as I care.
For someone who has a BA and Masters in Journalism, her writing is poor quaility. I am no Hemingway, but she writes poorly and after reading her book (yes, I read the book) I think her poor attitude shows in her writing. I think I would never give her a second dance based upon what I read. She truly is "An Agry Stripper".
It is interesting that one doesn't find these kind of books in other industries.
