After a long time away from my inworld home and friends, I made it back in time for bon temps in St John Parish. The party was held in the Maison Bleu club, hosted by the inimitable DJ Holocluck. The music was terrific and the typist got up and danced. I will be working on some new projects – sadly, I won’t be participating in STEAM X as a merchant, but happily I will be…

Hey! I got some press! Whaddya know! SL Newser image link The third shop on Steelhead is the dry goods shop found at Settlement 601 – St Helens Dry Goods Frontier Supplies, Steelhead St Helens (68, 156, 38). St. Helens Dry Goods is Shop #117 in the Hunt. They offer a very good cup of expresso to visitors, which I enjoyed while I looked around. They have all the items you might expect in a…
I’ve joined a couple of marketing groups and have realized that I need to update some of my branding, so I went looking for images to adapt that had no copyright issues. Look at this darling Steampunk Chameleon I found on Flickr! According to the terms of the license, it’s Attribution/Share-Alike, so thank you, Saundra, for this beautifully inspiring little piece, which exists in the real world. So this is what I have for the…
I haven’t had very much to do with marketing groups; I belong to a Victorian shopkeepers one that’s kind of invitation only, but haven’t quite gotten my role updated to “can send notices of new products to the group” yet. But I might make myself a big fat TO-DO list on that, because last night I experienced the power of marketing to the right group of potential customers. I have set up a vendor with…
I’d been wearing a resized version of the velvet hat with my DINKIES kitty avatar and having so much fun, I had to put it out there for other Dinkies to enjoy. Also, check out my “Chameleonic Possessions” group on Flickr – I’ll upload preview images of products I’m working on there, and also the best images of some of my existing products. I’m hoping that if people join it they’ll upload photos of themselves…
(cross posted from my WordPress.com blog*, creatively titled “Chameleonic Possession) Here I am, on my standalone grid Haleakaloha, which isn’t very interesting and isn’t open for visitors, and up until yesterday, it wasn’t working very well because of a texture-reloading bug. Also, I’ve been struggling with Blender again, trying to learn it and not get discouraged. Yesterday, SUCCESS, after getting some help, I installed an update that fixed my Open Sim grid. Today, SUCCESS, I…
I’ve been absent lately from my shop and my group events, owing to a pesky problem with arm and shoulder pain (stupid Real World Problems(tm) anyway). But today I came back with a purpose – my friend Mistletoe opened the Festival of King Richard in Lionheart Ahadi – here’s the SLURL: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife//181/229/28 There’s storytelling and (I think) some music events planned – here’s Mist enjoying a tale: I managed to get my little booth set…
I’m participating in an Antique hunt that starts on Friday – must check in with the organizer and make sure I’ve got all my stuffs in a row. Here’s what I’ve been working on – I will be adding something to go with it, probably a nice rug made from a new set of tapestry textures I got. It’s derived from the exquisite Duc du Berry’s “Les Tres Riches Heures” manuscript, using the largest images…
It was a lot of fun listening to Krypton Radio tonight, in spite of some technical glitches. They’re going to get to do an interview with Bruce Boxleitner (yes, yes, Captain Sheridan and Tron and all). He has a new project coming out sometime, a Steampunk one at that, and fan friendly as well: Lantern City. Well, this looks like exactly the kind of thing I’d like to watch: The new Steampunk show Lantern City,…
