Francis says she had positive feedback from her first book.
"I just put it out there and exposed myself, so to speak, I was brutally honest," she says.
"I gave people an insight about what it was like to work in the sex industry. I didn't glorify it. The book is based on fact."
In Naked Truth Francis talks with people about how and why they got involved in the sex industry. Some of the tales are very funny and some sad, some shocking, but all are intriguing. It's not often you get a glimpse into a part of society that has always been regarded, by myself, anyway, as secret and seedy.
Francis lifts the lid on those secrets and tells readers exactly what goes on behind closed doors.
"Some people think that sex workers are forced into the industry for all sorts of reasons, mainly money, of course.
"What I wanted to get across is that people choose to be in it. They enjoy what they do," she says.
Francis says she is not a fly-by-nighter when it comes to writing.
"I am now the author of two books. I'm like a dog with a bone when I get an idea, I don't give up."
