I have just signed up to the brand new subscription site, AussieFans. “Another site!” I hear you say. In the online world, there are constantly new platforms popping up where you can get your naughty content needs met. In this post, I will explain to you the what, how and why of AussieFans, and hopefully make a convert of you.
What is AussieFans?
AussieFans is a paid subscription site for accessing the content of Australian performers. For a monthly fee, you can access the profiles and free content of some great Australian creators (including myself!). My public content includes my video previews, not safe for work pics and behind the scenes clips
Then you can subscribe to individual creators for their private content. My private content will include photos, all of my full length videos and options for ordering custom content. You can also purchase individual videos and photos instead of the full profile subscription. If you are a superfan, subscribe to a creator. And if you just want a taste, just buy a video or two.
Think of it like OnlyFans, but for Australian performers and fans.
The full site paid subscription is part of the protections for performers and for the release of content under Australian law. This makes AussieFans different from other sites where you can browse content and performers without payment, but it is important to see the benefit of this site. Particularly if you are Australian!
Why should I support you on AussieFans?
When it comes to paid content sites for adult performers, Australians have had to deal with sites based overseas. We have accepted that this is the way things are but that means dealing with weird currency conversions (where we don’t know exactly how much we are spending or earning) and site support located overseas which can be difficult to navigate.
On AussieFans, you know exactly what you are spending and I know exactly what I am earning, as it is all in the magnificent Australian dollar!
Besides myself, you will find some of the best amateur content creators in the country. I guarantee there are some hidden gems you didn’t even know existed!
How do I sign up?
Signing up is super easy! Go to AussieFans and select the “I am a fan” option to create your account and start seeing what this great Southern Land has to offer.

I have been approached to try out a brand new way of messaging with my fans. I have always wanted to offer messaging, but due to being in Australia, my options have been limited, to none. Let me introduce you to Chat With Fans.
What is Chat With Fans?
Chat With Fans is a new app that allows content creators to connect with their fans. It was developed by a ManyVids, OnlyFans and Chaturbate model who saw a need for a better way for models to build relationships with their fanbase. It is based primarily on messaging, and unlike a lot of messaging services, it can be used by people WORLDWIDE. Including me here in Australia. Having been locked out of other platforms due to where I am from, I am super excited to jump on board and try out this platform.
It is downloadable as an app for your phone and has a super tidy and easy interface. In a nutshell, it is a paid messaging app.
What Can Do You Do on Chat With Fans?
Chat With Fans is NOT a monthly subscription service. Instead, you pay for exactly what you want. You can chat via text message on the app with your favourite creator, exchange photos and buy special photo sets within the creators gallery. You pay PER MESSAGE and there is a set rate, so you spend exactly what you want.
In the future, Chat With Fans are looking to bring in voice and video calls and webcamming, so there is potential for this app to grow and develop. This will mean more ways for you to get up close and personal with your favourite creator.
Another thing that sets Chat With Fans apart from other apps is that you won’t be bombarded with messages from other models or have to deal with other promotional stuff from people you don’t even know. Chat With Fans connects you DIRECTLY with your favourite creators. Think of it as having their phone number, without any other BS!
I will be offering just vanilla chatting as well as sexting through my account, for exactly the same rate, so you don’t have to worry about what you want to talk about and having pay rates change in the middle of a conversation.
I have a free gallery of safe for work pics, but I also have a few special galleries set up with some sexy pics with some very specific gallery titles so you know what you are getting for your coins.
How Do You Sign Up?
To sign up to Chat With Fans as a fan, go to https://chatwith.fans/signup and select the “I want to chat” option.
It is FREE to sign up, and then you get to purchase coins to be able to chat and exchange photos with me.
What Happens After You Sign Up?
After you sign up, you can start chatting and buying photos from your favourite creators. You will need to have their direct link or otherwise know their exact username to search for them on the app. My direct link is (https://chatwith.fans/remsequence) or search my username “remsequence” on the app to find me.
You get 3 FREE MESSAGES to start chatting with your favourite model before you start paying their per message rate. Photos cost more than just pure text, but you get to exchange photos too.
Payment is via “coins” (like the traditional token system) with 20 coins = $1. I have found the set up of the coin system to be super easy to understand and translate as opposed to other token sites which I have steered clear of in the past. These are available in “packs” to purchase, and the more coins you buy, the cheaper it is for you. The great thing is that these coins never expire, so you don’t have to worry about using it within a set time.
What Are You Waiting For?
This is your PERSONAL invitation from ME to join Chat With Fans so we can start having some fun conversations!
Go to https://chatwith.fans/signup , set up your account and find me on the app! I look forward to hearing my notifications go off with your first message to me.

I have been on ManyVids since 2018… it wasn’t the first site you could find my content on, but it was a very close second. Over the years, the site has changed it’s features and functionality, and sometimes it can be overwhelming to know where to actually start to get your profile growing, connect with customers and bag your sales.
I thought it might be useful for models using ManyVids to hear my top 5 tips for getting the most out of the site. At the current time, with the functions available to us, these are the things I believe you MUST do to grow on ManyVids. (these things can and probably will change, but for now, this is where we are at).
Hey, if you are not a model, this may not be very interesting to you… or maybe it will be! If you are a customer, it might help you navigate the site better too (otherwise known as win-win).
Complete EVERYTHING in About Me Section
In your ManyVids profile you will have an About Me section which has a two-fold job; 1) it tells visitors to your profile who you are and why you are so amazing, and 2) filling it out adds points to your MV score which contributes to your rating across the site. The rating is important because it helps you get seen on the site. For example, if someone searches for PAWG and then filters by “Highest MV Score”… BAM! There is your girl Rem Sequence.
See? There I am in the second row, at number 12! Under my beautiful friend, Greeneyedfreakymom… totally not complaining!
And people do this when they get on a site… they will plug in what they are looking for and getting yourself as close to the top as possible is absolutely key for you to become their new favourite person.
Think of it this way… the more info you provide about yourself that speaks in a language that the customer/site understands, the more visible you will be.
The first section looks a little something like this:
As you can see, it has my joining date, my score, my social links, a blurb and my top video tags. The social tags are inputted in the next section so we will leave it for now. The video tags are automatically assigned depending on what you tag your videos. As you can see, my top vids are PAWG, MILF, Big Butts, Big Ass and SFW (I have a lot of non-nude content on my page… don’t judge me!)
People get a bit overwhelmed with the About Me section and I totally understand this. My advice, which may not help with this anxiety, is to use the character limit to the max! You want to write as much relevant, bait text in there as you can. You can always go back and edit this so don’t get too hung up on getting your first draft perfect, just get it done!
If you are not sure how to start, visit the pages of other models and see what they have written. Put yourself in the position of a customer who has never met you or seen you before. What are your best qualities, skills and how are you going to entertain them?
Remember all of this can be refined over time… mine has definitely had a number of revisions.
The second part of the About Me is an attributes block and looks a little something like this:
Fill in as much of this as you can. I cannot tell you how many profiles I visit that have nothing in this section. If you have nothing in here, it just says “check back later!” It is important because it tells people what you are about and gives them the option of “hearting” your hair colour, eye colour, breast size, measurements and body type. (For MV Boys and Trans, the options are different but the same rule applies… fill it all out!)
The “hearts” on your attributes contribute to your MV score so provide as many opportunities as you can for people to help boost your score. When I follow fellow models, I immediately go to this page and “heart” all the attributes I can because I know it is important.
Socialise on MV Social
MV Social was a big deal when it first came in. It was a huge change and like change in general, people didn’t like it. I was one of them.
But the main reason I didn’t like it was that I didn’t know how the hell to use it properly!
We get so used to doing things a certain way on certain sites that when it changes up, most of us are not flexible enough to embrace the change. Most of us come kicking and screaming.
The fact is that MV Social is just like… a social media platform. You can post, like, comment on and share other people’s content. I was doing it everyday on Twitter and Instagram but didn’t think clearly enough to transfer that mindset to ManyVids.
So, like you would do on other platforms, follow other models and like, comment and share their posts. If they share a post of yours, it is good manners to reciprocate! Reply to comments on your posts too. And like other platforms, it is definitely a faux pas to advertise YOUR content in the comments section of another models post. Just… don’t.
Have a Pinned Post
Like I said above, ManyVids is really starting to take off as a social community, so you will get people coming to your profile and wanting to like, share and comment on your posts. It is a “I scratch your back if you scratch mine” situation.
However…
Make sure there is something there for people to share! You can pin a post to the top of your MV Social page so that there is always something for someone to share if they want to support you. I share a lot of content from other models, but I always make sure I have an additional one or two posts of my own below my pinned post, so that if someone comes by, they can see what I am about and have more than one post to share.
Connect with other Models
Another thing you must do to grow on ManyVids is to connect with other models. Follow them, like their “About Me” section, like their clips, like and re-MV their posts and be a positive and supportive presence on the site.
There are also many reMV groups operated by models via Twitter that you can connect in with. These help to promote your content on ManyVids, therefore getting it out to a wider audience. These usually have quite specific rules about being a member, including liking and reMVing other models content, voting in contests and reviewing clips. Make sure you understand the rules of the group and always go to the admin of the group if you have any issues.
As I have said in previous posts, it is important to build positive relationships with other models and steer clear of drama. Think of other models as your work colleagues, working under the same employer. If you had an issue at your workplace, how would you handle it? We are often in a position of having to work with people who we don’t like or whose values don’t match our own, but it is important to stay civil and respectful.
Some would say drama between models can help increase exposure and sales, but in my experience, customers don’t like it. If you want to switch people off, or associate your name with a bad vibe, by all means, start drama. But in my experience, especially using ManyVids, customers are not huge fans of those models who are not nice to others in their community.
Enter the Weekly Competitions
This last one is definitely a bone of contention between models. ManyVids do weekly competitions as well as longer contests that can go as long as 10 days. These are opt in only, so you have to put a photo up and a contest quote to enter. You can offer rewards for paid votes (eg $5 = 1 free full length vid etc) which a lot of models do to increase their earnings and get a higher ranking in the comp.
I worked in the music industry for many years, and we certainly rail against gigs just for exposure in that sphere. Because that’s how unpaid opportunities are normally framed: “Yeah, we won’t pay you, but think of the EXPOSURE.” (*insert eye roll here).
But yes, I am gonna say it… one of the main things you can get out of being involved in a ManyVids contest is exposure, eg customers who didn’t know you exist get a chance to meet you. If you can get on the first or second page of the weekly contest, your chances of someone new seeing you go right up.
You can also access a “voter list”, so you can see everyone that voted for you. I make a point of contacting all the people who gave me free votes to thank them personally, and this has been a great tool to introduce yourself to new customers who may be interested in buying your content.
ManyVids does not offer a whole bunch of opportunities to get your face seen by people on the site, and as with all other sites, I advocate that you use what you can, while you can. As crappy as pure “exposure” is, the competitions are one of the ways to gain this. Because there are people out there who are your next big super fan, they just don’t know you exist yet.
I hope you enjoyed this piece and that it gave you some extra things to think about when it comes to how you use ManyVids. I haven’t covered EVERYTHING so if there is something you feel is also important, feel free to email me and let me know.

It may surprise you to learn that I have multiple disabilities. I am the poster child for invisible illnesses, nice to meet you. In this series of blog posts, I am going to talk about what it is like being an adult content creator (or what I like to call myself, professional hot girl) and managing diseases which are debilitating on a daily basis. I am going to talk through them and I promise there will be a great big dollop of humour because I love having a laugh at myself. And what do I hope to achieve with this? Well, if you are a fan, I hope it will give you an insight what it takes to keep this (*gestures to the meatsuit I inhabit) running and looking as amazing as it does. I hope it will also open your mind to the fact that a lot of us professional hot people are managing a whole bunch of things that are completely invisible to the outsider. And if you are a fellow professional hot person with a disability, I hope this will help you feel like you are not alone.
What is MS?
I grew up in the 80s when MS was a pretty big deal. I remember the donation jar for the MS Society being on the counter of my mum and dads shop, but having no idea what it was, only that MS was bad enough to have lots of these donation jars kicking around, raising funds for research and cures. But I got the sense that people with MS were relegated to wheelchairs and their lives were pretty shit all in all.
Fast forward 30+ years and I still didn’t have much of an idea of what MS was when I was diagnosed with it in March 2020. The story of my diagnosis is a whole other story that I will save for another time, ok? Let’s just keep this first blog post simple and with a shorter length than an undergraduate philosophy essay…
MS stands for multiple sclerosis and is an auto-immune disease. What that means is that my immune system that instead of attacking nasty things that enter my body, it will attack my body itself. Different auto-immune diseases attack different parts of the body.
I have two auto-immune diseases, one that attacks my bowel and MS, which attacks my central nervous system.
Think about your central nervous system being a network of cables that run through your body, connected to your brain and whose job is to send signals back and forth from all over your body.
To work well, the central nervous system needs to be healthy and protected, so it is wrapped in a special sheath, like an electrical power cord, which makes sure the signals are sent accurately.
Like a power cord, if the sheath that surrounds your central nervous system is damaged, there will be problems getting the signal to travel to and fro.
In MS, the immune system attacks the special sheath around the central nervous system, creating sores (lesions) which then heal to become scars – hence the name “Multiple Sclerosis” meaning “Many Scars.”
How Does MS Affect You?
MS effects everyone in different ways. As you can imagine, not everyone has the same damage to their central nervous system in the same places. It is also a very complicated system, so different parts of it do different jobs. People’s symptoms of MS can be quite vague until the disease progresses to a point where the symptoms are more visible and diagnosable.
For me, I have had chronic fatigue for YEARS. Like not just tired, or exhausted but FATIGUED, which is the kind of tiredness that isn’t fixed by sleep. Your body feels encased in concrete.
I have also had issues with being very sensitive to the heat, pins and needles and numbness in one part of my body, headaches and constant pain that has no one source.
It was only when I became very unwell, and my symptoms became much worse, that I was diagnosed. I developed optic neuritis, which is an inflammation of the nerve cells in the eye, which caused me to lose sight, become incredibly painful and sensitive to light.
It is a symptom that a lot of people with MS have, and it is usually the reason people get to be diagnosed with the disease.
My fatigue then worsened, along with my heat sensitivity, difficulty with balance, brain fog and issues with moving my eyes independently of my head.
So, How Do You Do The Work You Do?
The thing with adult entertainment, and I am going to burst many people’s bubbles right now, is that it is exactly that; entertainment. And entertainment is comprised of a hell of a lot of smoke and mirrors and tricks to get the audience drawn in and to believe something is amazing and effortless. Therein lie the “How.”
Sometimes you might see a photo of me standing up, but I am propped against something.
I might be in enormous pain but I shut it off for the duration of the photo or push through it during a live show.
Or then I may just be less active than usual because if the body decides it does not want to work, there is no convincing it that you need to make clips today.
The smoke and mirrors of adult entertainment, and the flexibility that running my own business affords me, means I can do the work I do.
I sleep a lot, and I am generally running on empty and everything hurts, but I keep doing what I can. And most people are none the wiser.
Now that the preliminaries out of the way and you have a general idea of what may be going on behind the scenes, I can share some funny, tragic and weird stories and how the heck I live (and be sexy) with MS. Is it a terminal illness? Is there a cure? Is this why you complain about being so hot all the damn time? Stay tuned for my next post to know more…

The adult content creation industry is filled with acronyms. It helps us shorten down lengthy names that we have to repeat over and over again, and it also helps talk about things in discrete ways with a certain amount of privacy. I have previously written a list of acronyms but I thought it was time to do an update of the acronyms I am asked about most frequently, this time including a bit of a description as well to help you on your way. The times they are a-changing, and that means what we use to describe ourselves and what we do must also change too.
SW – Sex Worker
This one has always been a bit funny for me, having worked in human services for coming up two decades. The acronym SW in that field stands for “social worker” and is used quite a lot (especially in casenotes, reports etc). So when I started to see it written in relation to strippers, full service providers, camgirls, pornstars and phone sex operators, I would have these moments of confusion. What the hell are these people talking about? Let’s just say context is everything.
CBT – Cock and Balls Torture
Another one which gave me some awkward times as I began negotiating the world of BDSM and providing therapy. CBT in a therapeutic setting stands for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and is a therapy that helps people change problematic behaviours. In BDSM, it is about treating the family jewels in an extremely aggressive way, all the while with consent. It could be thought of as a behaviour modification program too I guess.
JOI/JOE – Jerk Off Instruction/Encouragement
This is one of my top requested video types. Basically, it is an interactive experience where I talk you through exactly how I want you to touch yourself. Some people would argue that JOI must have a cum countdown (so you get told exactly when you can come) but JOE doesn’t have to. I disagree, as I think you can jerk off without cumming, although if you do want to have a happy ending to your video, you should probably make sure the star is going to finish on that note. One of my top selling JOI clips is “Oily Ass JOI”, which does not include a countdown, but is very satisfying, regardless, in the opinion of those who have purchased.
CEI – Cum Eating Instructions
I didn’t think eating one’s own cum was such a big deal… until I included it in a clip and everyone who saw it went BANANAS! It is a perfect addition to a JOI clip that culminates in a cum countdown. In a nutshell, the performer instructs you on how and when to eat your cum. I like to provide graphic descriptions of how the cum should look and where it should land before it is eaten. For a taste (see what I did there?) of the Rem Sequence approach to CEI, check out my clip “Kinky PAWG JOI”. It is a long one but well worth the 20 minutes it will take to watch it!
PH – PornHub
Onto the clipsites! A lot of models will abbreviate clipsite names because a) it is easier when we are talking about them all the time (that is the main purpose of an acronym!) and b) because saying the whole word can get us in trouble on non-adult friendly platforms (looking right at you Instagram). PornHub have run into a little bit of trouble of late, with Mastercard and Visa pulling out of allowing them to use them as a payment method (banks and the war on porn is worthy of a whole post in itself). So Visa are currently on a hold with PornHub while Mastercard have called quits for good. This means that PornHub is attempting to do a cleanup, not allowing unverified content on the platform and reviewing clips before allowing them to go live, in the hope that Visa will reconsider their withdrawal. Anyway, I still have a tonne of content on there that you can watch for FREE (126 vids and counting) so it is well worth going over and subscribing to my channel. Check it out here.
MV – ManyVids
ManyVids is my go-to adult site right now and I am growing it as much as possible. ManyVids works for me because they have all the features my fans love. You can buy clips, photosets, other store items (like my used panties!), join model fan clubs, buy a membership (accessing a tonne of clips for a special price) AND they have a live cam function as well as a social media feed! I mean, what else could you ask for in a site? And all my new member followers get a special welcome message from yours truly. If you haven’t signed up yet, what are you waiting for? And if you haven’t checked out my profile yet, you will find it here.
AVN – Adult Video Network
AVN (the Adult Video Network) have expanded into the waiting market for subscription based adult content sites with AVN Stars. I have been building my site there and personally I really love the versatility of it. It is one of my top sites alongside ManyVids. It offers the same options as other subscription sites (content locked for subscribers only, Pay-To-View messaging, live shows for subscribers) as well as a clip store attached to your profile, a social feed and a groups option (which I am still thinking about how to use best… perhaps a Panty Fetishists group?). Check out my AVN Stars here (and if you follow me you will get a special gift in your inbox).
MILF – Mum I’d Like to Fuck
Most people are aware that MILF stands for Mum I’d Like To Fuck (thank you perhaps to Stifler’s mum in American Pie… but I digress) but lots of people are not sure why MILFs are such a big deal. It is one of the biggest search terms consistently on major adult content sites so obviously it is of sought after content. But why? Well, my fans tell me it is a number of things. It is the perceived experience of an older woman, and particularly a mother, as we are generally quite well aware of our bodies having carried humans inside of them! There is also the taboo nature of being sexually attracted to a mum who could potentially be your mum’s friend, or the mum of YOUR friend. It all combines together into some very exciting fantasies! I have a number of clips where I play the MILF role, either in a humiliating/degrading way or a gentle nurturing way. Here is one of my latest Mommy clips.
PAWG – Phat Ass White Girl
So when I was first labelled with the PAWG tag, I had no idea what the heck people were talking about. Now this is a source of contention for a lot of people, who feel the term “PAWG” upholds racially discriminative systems, and is the feitshization (is that even a word?) of racial stereotypes. The argument is that performers should describe themselves as “curvy” or “big ass” instead. Here is my take: as much as you try, you will NEVER make porn PC (politically correct for those who are here for the acronyms). There are bigger moves to remove BBC (big black cock, another porn acronym), interracial, ebony, oriental and even ahego as categories in adult entertainment. People have said “check in with black women to see what they think” (see this Twitter thread for more) and noone I have checked in with has had an issue. I get hatemail from plenty of white performers and SWERFS telling me to drop it. It remains a bone of contention for many people. Anyway, you can find a whole tonne of my content in the PAWG category on any of my clipsites. The most recent clip was “PAWG Pantyhose and Dildo Squirt” which you can find on ManyVids.
BBW – Big Beautiful Woman
Speaking of fetishization of bodies, we have BBW, or big beautiful women. I have absolutely no problem with this category in adult entertainment as I think it is about time that we have all body types represented in the industry and the term makes these performers easier to find. However, I do have a problem when I am placed in this category. Not because I don’t want to be associated with amazing performers who are kicking ass, but because I don’t qualify for this category and I will not take space that is dedicated to performers who do. As much respect as I have for my fans, I am not a BBW as some of you think. I am thick and curvy and packed in the back, but I am not a BBW.

For those of you who have been following me for a while, you will know that I was a finalist in three categories in the 2019 Australian X Awards. Held in Melbourne, Australia in November 2019, I ended up as a runner up in the hotly contested Female Porn Star Category. This year, I am a finalist in 4 awards categories… here they are and why you should vote for me… (voting is open to Australian and New Zealand residents only, so forward this to your friends, family and acquaintances in the region)…
Female Porn Star
As I said in my introduction, in 2019 I took home the runner up prize in this category of the Australian X Awards. In the time since then, my presence in this field has grown exponentially! Not only am I a top model on my suite of clip sites, but I am also a verified Porn Star on PornHub. With over 200 videos for your viewing pleasure, I have amassed 1.1K subscribers and almost 13K views in under a year. Impressive, yes?
If you start looking for me on the internet, you will find an absolute TONNE of adult content that I have made. Apart from clips, pics and other goodies that you can find on my multiple clip sites, I do this regular blog thing and at the moment I am working on a special series of podcasts with an amazing group based in the US (more on that to come). So yes, I have my finger in a few content pies and they are all fucking tasty. Have a look and you will see.
Live camming is a relatively new area for me but I have already made a big impression! I started camming in 2020 as a means of promoting my new clips when they drop and I have developed a very regular and loyal group of fans. I cam once a week on Streamate, and if you check out my profile, you will find my schedule adjusted to your time zone. I already have over 120 fans and a solid 5 star rating. If you want to check out what a day on cam looks like for me, I release a cheeky safe-for-work edit once a week called Cam Comedy. Worth checking out to see exactly why I should win this category.
And finally, the category that is the bread and butter of the Rem Sequence show, Fetish and Fantasy. From Femdom, to spit, to big feet worship and ass worship… I love it all. I have also started a journey into making inflatable content which has been awesome fun. There isn’t anything that I am not willing to have a go at and yes, I do in person meets if you are interested in exploring something in real life.
I absolutely understand that a lot of people are doing it tough right now; physically, emotionally and financially. I know that people have lost their jobs due to COVID-19 and that government relief is difficult and sometimes impossible to access. So adult content creators who you may have previously supported through buying content and services will not be a priority right now. This blog post also goes out to the people who (even before COVID-19) say they wish they could support us but don’t have the money to do so. Here are five ways you can support your favourite adult stars when you have no cash…
Visit our PornHub Accounts
Most models have accounts on PornHub either as amateurs or professional porn stars. On these accounts, you will find free clips, pay-to-view content and content viewable on Premium. Viewing our videos and giving them the thumbs up helps us immensely. PornHub is a tube site, which means models get paid per each view on accessible videos. And liking a video helps too because the calculation on what a model gets paid takes into account the percentage of likes on their content. Liking and commenting on pictures in a models albums on PornHub helps also. All of these things goes into the metrics which help drive up our scores and gets us seen by more people. Also, a pro-tip: we get paid MORE for videos viewed by Premium members and guess what… premium membership is FREE. Do I have a PornHub account? I sure do! Check out my collection of smut right here.

Not-Safe-For-Work (NSFW) Twitter is one of the only social media platforms where adult content creators are allowed to advertise. So your support on Twitter is invaluable. Follow your favourite adult content creators, like and comment on their posts, retweet and help promote their product to a wider audience. Being active and present on your favourite models Twitter is important in helping us try to beat the algorithm as Twitter has made it known that they are actively restricting content they deem offensive. Sad but true. Pro-tip: on your favourite model’s account page, there is a little bell next to the follow button. Click on that and you will be notified when they post a new Tweet. Due to the consistent shadowbanning, we could be posting every hour of the day and you may never know unless you hit that little notification bell. Check out my Twitter here and tell me what you think.
Visit our Clip Sites
Even if you can’t purchase clips, content or services at the moment, it always helps if you visit our clip sites and show some love on our profiles. Like clips, watch free clips and give a review, if you have bought clips in the past and haven’t reviewed them, go and do that. Follow your favourite creators too because some sites give rewards to creators who get their follower numbers up. The main one I am referring to here is ManyVids. Also on ManyVids, you can look at a model’s About Me section and like their attributes. Doing that helps with our rankings too, which in turn helps promote us on the site. Check out my ManyVids profile here and if you haven’t showered me in love, do it now.
Contest Voting
Most clip sites have some form of contests on them to help connect and engage consumers and models. For some features, you will require cash, but most have a free voting option. Not only does free voting help, but boosting models call for support in contests on your social media will help too. Free vote as much as you can; with some you can vote daily so make sure you are hitting that vote button whenever you can. AP Clips have regular contests and although I haven’t entered one yet, I would love to hear your thoughts on my account on that platform.
Reddit
Reddit is also another platform which has a NSFW section. I am new to Reddit, so I am still finding my way around it. But from what I can gather, for people to grow on there, they need others to support them through following them, upvoting their posts and crossposting their content to relevant communities. Reddit involves a system of “karma” and you need to have good/high “karma” in order to reach larger audiences. (Sidenote: calling this system “karma” really does amuse me). So on Reddit, follow your favourite creators on their communities, upvote their posts and if you have better “karma” than they do, crosspost into communities where their target audience can be seen. For example, crossposting me into Big Ass or PAWG subreddits would be super helpful. Check out my Reddit here and be gentle with me; as I said, I am an absolute newbie there.
What other ways do you support your favourite adult content creators when you don’t have the cold hard cash to do so? If you are a model, can you suggest any other ways that our fans can support us? I would love to hear your thoughts and my emails are always open. Email me at remsequence@gmail.com.

This week has been intense on many fronts… from what is happening worldwide, to changes in clip sites, to managing my personal stuff, it has been hard to keep up with everything!
As I mentioned in my last newsletter, June is Jiggle Month on Clips4Sale, and it has already been a cracker of a month on that platform since almost all my clips have some form of jiggle in them. If you like this kind of thing, then this would be a great time to check out that site as myself and other creators will be loading up a tonne of super hot jiggle content.
After being approached by a lovely customer, I have ventured into doing inflatable content, which has been a steep learning curve but something that I am really enjoying. What the heck do I mean by that? Well, check out my new clips below and you will get a sense of what all the fuss is about.
Let’s get on with it, shall we?

In the first blog post I wrote on boundaries, I talked about WHY it is so important to have them in these five areas. But what use is a why if you don’t have a HOW? In this follow up blog post, I will talk about how I maintain boundaries in order to stay happy and healthy.
With your TIME
The first thing you need to do when maintaining boundaries is to set them. Time is probably one of the easiest areas to do this in, as it is an objective measurement. For example:
When will you work?
When won’t you work?
When are you available for your customers (how much time)?
When are you not available?
How much interaction are you willing to give to potential customers (how much time)?
Once you have decided on these, don’t be shy about it; make it known. You can do this through your 1:1 interactions with people, embed it into your social media postings or posting on your sites. I am not available after 10pm every night or before 8am in the morning my time and I am pretty vocal about this. At this stage, this works for me. If it changes, I will make it known again. Consider it the opening hours of your business. The thing is, if people know when you are open for business and what to expect from you, then there is no pushback. Why? Because your clients/customers then accept that that is how you operate. You don’t have to be snarky about it, just matter of fact “I don’t respond after 10pm, I will get back to this in the morning.” Treat it like any other business would.
With who YOU are
We all have lives that are separate from our content creator personas, and although there may be some crossover, it is important to keep some distance between the two (for the sake of your mental health). This is difficult though, as we develop relationships with our fans, customers and clients, it is normal that we may start to share more about our lives than we may have at the beginning. Also, the way this industry is now, people expect a certain amount of personal sharing and connection with their favourite content creators. I maintain this boundary by treating Rem Sequence as a job, both in practice but also in my headspace. My fans and clients do not know my real name; I ask that my friends and people who know me in real life call me by my real name. I am not a big sharer anyway, so I find it easy not to share personal details in public. I think this is useful to think about in multiple ways; the content of your photos (keeping personal things out of them), when you talk about places you visit, things you enjoy. Although these can build relationships with your fanbase, they can also erode the boundary between YOU and your work. How much are you willing to share? What things are you going to keep just for you? When I am pressed about certain details, I have a few strategies that I use. Sometimes, I will make something up; other times I will just distract the person. Remember, you are in charge of what and how much you share of YOU. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
With your CASH
As with time, how we maintain boundaries when it comes to our money is a bit easier as it is something objective. Your payment methods, your rates and your pricing are all things you can decide upon and rattle off very easily when asked. How to maintain that boundary? My best piece of advice is to stick to your guns, even if someone gets pushy. Lots of content creators get worried about losing business or what others will think about them if they budge around their cash. If someone really wants to have a piece of you, they will work with you and not waste your time by arguing with you over a payment method or a matter of dollars. Let these people walk. Don’t even bother arguing, just politely excuse yourself from the conversation. You are costing yourself MORE money by justifying why you run your business in a certain way to people that are not invested in what you are doing.
With your PERSONA
When it comes to boundaries around my persona, I have found that the number one reason that I may budge on them is because of a lack of confidence in myself. If I feel like maybe I should explore area xyz because someone has asked me repeatedly about it YET it is something I am not comfortable with, then the reason probably is because of a loss of faith in what I am creating. The way I manage this is by surrounding myself with supportive and encouraging people who are knowledgeable in the business and can pull me up by the bootstraps when I need it. Instead of questioning and exploring my boundaries with customers, clients and random peers, I will go back to this group of supporters and check in with them. Nine times out of ten they tell me that my initial reasoning was sound and not to worry about what anybody else says. I think when it comes to our personas, having confidence in ourselves and commitment to the path we are taking is absolutely key. And the way to maintain this is through the people we surround ourselves with.
With your ENERGY
In my first post on boundaries, I talked a bit about how to maintain these around your energy. It is definitely easy to get sucked into working 24/7 as a content creator and it is just not healthy. In my opinion, the best thing you can do in this regard is to treat it as if it were a vanilla job where you are accountable to someone for the level of energy you put in. Develop a work schedule and stick to it. Incorporate break times/days into this schedule and make sure you future proof yourself for if you are in the unfortunate position to have to take time off. The number one thing is to work out how much you can do in the time you have, and know that some other creators may work more than you and some less, but that doesn’t make you any better or worse than anyone else. And if people make you feel bad about that… well, that says a lot more about them than it does you. Working with people can be incredibly draining, and you must develop boundaries around this and maintain them in order to remain consistent and survive in this industry. Once again, having a strong support network who can encourage and support you in your decisions around this is vital.
I hope this piece helped to address questions you may have had about how to maintain boundaries. However, in writing this, I realised one of the key things to success is developing supportive and encouraging relationships with other content creators and people in our industry. In my next piece, I will talk about finding your tribe and some guidelines I have found useful when building and maintaining my support network.

Boundaries are important, in every part of your life. When I talk about boundaries, I am referring to rules you make around your interactions with other people. In the content creation industry, I believe they are mandatory and have definitely given me more clarity on where I draw the line on a number of things. In a previous post, I said I could probably do a whole blog post on my experience with boundaries. The response from the readers was “yes please!” So here are my five must-have boundaries for content creators.
With your TIME
Time is precious; it is something that once it is gone, you can never get it back. This is my number boundary area for this very reason. I have an extremely low tolerance for time wasters and for people who do not respect the boundaries I place around my time. I think it is important to look at your time in a number of ways, and make some decisions about what you will and won’t accept. For example:
When will you work?
When won’t you work?
When are you available for your customers (how much time)?
When are you not available?
How much interaction are you willing to give to potential customers (how much time)?
With my time, I have designated times when I am making content, online chatting with customers and fans, working on admin and answering messages. I am very busy in other areas of my life so I simply do not have time to waste. And if I want to get things done, then these boundaries must be rock solid. If people genuinely want your time, they will respect how precious it is and treat you accordingly.
With who YOU are
Here is a bombshell. I am not actually Rem Sequence. Crazy, I know, but hear me out. I actually have a life which has a little crossover with my model persona, but a lot of my life has little to no relation to my work. This is also a very important one to me, because I recently had an experience where my identity felt a little detached. For several weeks I felt extremely isolated because Rem Sequence is a part of me, not my entire identity. But when everyone you interact with knows you as this persona, all the other facets of you seem to drift away. The fact you need to remember is that you are not your model persona. Establishing boundaries around this so that you can keep some distance between the role you play for your fans and who you are when you are off the clock. Although this is important for safety (and why we adopt stage names for ourselves, protecting our real life identities from those who may want to exploit us), I think this is really important for our mental health. We are sharing extremely intimate parts of our lives, and exposing vulnerabilities at the same time. This can feel very unsafe unless we have ways to manage it.
With your CASH
Trust me. You know your business better than anyone and you know what works best for you when it comes to the almighty dollar. From how much you charge for content, to how much it costs per minute for you to provide a service, to the payment methods and timeliness of your clients paying, you are the expert. It doesn’t matter if Joe Bloggs got a 15 minute custom from someone else at a third of your rate (or twice your rate). It is completely irrelevant if Jane Smalls uses a tip or tribute function or if they think you shouldn’t use some other payment platform because the one you prefer isn’t safe. And one I think we have all heard a million times before: “I can’t pay through your method: do you accept any others?” If people really want to buy your content or services, experience tells me they will do backflips to do so and will not expect you to put the same effort into the negotiation.
With your PERSONA
As we develop in the adult content creation business, we finetune our persona and what we create based upon what we enjoy doing, what we are good at and what is successful for our unique situation. Some of us just make clips, some are stars of the photoset and merch whilst others smash it with live shows. For me, I know I have grown and stretched into other areas that I found I enjoyed. However, there will always be someone saying “why don’t you do xyz?” Or “I would love to see you do abc!” Feedback from our clients and fans is gold, but micromanagement from outside is a complete buzzkill. If there are services you are not comfortable providing, or types of content you don’t enjoy making, you are under no obligation to do so. Sometimes we may feel we have to respond to every request with enthusiasm and a can-do attitude, especially when starting out. But honestly, you do not have to. That is the beautiful thing about this industry; we have such a diverse and multiskilled community that there will be someone who would love to do what you don’t want to do. And the coolest thing about that? It leaves you open to do the things YOU enjoy and that make your work meaningful.
With your ENERGY
And now we come to my personal fatal flaw, and one that I am now making a conscious effort to work on. I have unrealistic expectations of exactly how much I can get out of myself and recently it backfired in a most spectacular way, resulting in a lengthy hospital stay. For those with ambitious, A-type personalities, this is going to be a struggle. I believe you need to be treating your content creation as if it is a vanilla job. You clock on and you clock off. You have break times and you have scheduled days off. If you are unwell, you be kind to yourself and you do not work. Working out how much you can do in the time you have is paramount. Some people are able to put more energy in, and some people less. I am here to tell you that that is totally ok, and that doesn’t make you better than or less than anyone else. The secret to success in this business is consistency. And if you do not develop boundaries around your energy, which, let’s be honest, is the fuel to this fire, then you are going to get a hell of a shock when you wake up one day to find the jerry can empty. Or like me, stuck in a hospital bed discussing the possibility of life saving surgery.
Don’t get me wrong; it is totally fine for your boundaries to change over time. After all, as people, we grow, develop and change our preferences and what we are comfortable with all the time. What suited me in 2017 may not suit me going into 2020. The thing is to be aware of it, to have these conversations with yourself and value you as the amazing and capable person you are. Because what is the saying? “You are worth it.” This post has really focussed on what areas I think you need to develop boundaries around. In a follow up post, I will talk about HOW I do this and offer some suggestions for how you could build them into your business.
