Going to Seattle Erotic Art Festival!

And I'll be wearing this necklace!



This year, for the first time since 2010,  I entered some literary work in the Seattle Erotic Art Festival and recently found out that two erotic poems and one erotic short story made the cut and will be presented at this year's festival [list here]. The poems are Losing Her Composure and Re: Nude Bohemian. The short story is Corner Window Table. By the way, I'd entered five items back in February, the max allowed. Think I made some good choices with this submission? ;-)

What makes this so exciting for me is that I will be in the Seattle area then and so I can attend the festival! I'm not sure, but I think I may also get a chance to read some of my work as part of the festival. I mentioned that I have plenty of experience reading my erotic work, namely at The Erotic Literary Salon in Philadelphia. I'm busy picking out an outfit - I think I have the perfect one - and it will include the necklace above. There's a story behind it

And if that were not great enough, my friend Randy Lagana, an artist and photographer whose work has been featured on this blog many times, has some visual work in the festival. It will be a thrill to see his work there. 

I leave for Seattle in just over a week. While I'm out there I'll be meeting with some of the folks that I met through this blog. It's been a life-changer in so many ways. I'll also be spending time with family, and that's the main reason I'm going. SEAF is just a bonus. 

Lots going on and lots to do between now and then, but I need to start posting here more often.

Congratulations!! I think I'll be at a silent retreat while the festival is going on (if it's next weekend), so I'll wish you all the best with it and safe travels now! :)

High, girl!
While I realize my penname is quite morbid, yet,
you shall find in our blogs a lotta (subliminal) moxie
which has taken this sinfull mortal yeeeeers to compile:
I lay it ALL out for you, dear, with All-Star-Oxygems:

Wouldn’t ya love an endless eternity
of aplomBombs falling on thy indelible cranium?
An XtraXcitinXpose with no
zooillogical-expiration-date?
An IQ much higher than K2?
An extraordinarily, anti-establishment victory??
Here’s what the exquisite, prolific GODy sed
(with a most excellent detector of bull§ht):

“Faith, hope, and love,
the greatest of these is love -
jump into faith...
and you'll see with love”
Doesn’t matter if you don’t believe (what I write);
God believes in you.

Meet me Upstairs, girl, where the Son never goes down
from a passionate, lucrative iconoclasm where you’ll find
nonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsX…
of deluxe-HTTP [<- pi] opportunities for excitement BTW.

Do it. Do the deed, dude. Sign into the Big House.
