He doesn’t have an accountant so no problems there.

Some old half-remembered anecdote I read, something about some professional who got incredulous questions, when he tried to expense a book about the experiences of a sex worker, "Callgirl"...

"Really? and $12.99?"

Their US distributor had to persuade them that the name "HandJob" wouldn't be good.

That sounds like something Sharp would have done in the 1980s.
