My podcasting hubby

Yesterday my partner Ryan was the featured guest/interview in Episode 5 of the new the "Second Style Podcast," hosted by Tamara Kirshner and Daphne Abernathy. (Yes, and the blog he writes for and edits is part of the Second Style empire too ... it's all very incestuous, but in a good way.)


Listen to him talk about men's fashion in SL, and more importantly, listen to what a sexy voice he has. :-)

The boy's on a roll!

Film roll, that is. I've been going mad digging through 16 months' worth of SL photos on my hard drive and uploading them to my Flickr account. Unfortunately there are some good ones that have gone missing, but I've got enough left such that I'm left with a pretty good snapshot record of my Second Life so far.

Now, what I need to do is to start learning how to apply Photoshop techniques to SL photos as I do to RL ones, and get all awtsy-fawtsy. We'll see how that goes.

In the unlikely event you're following it, I'm uploading at a breakneck pace, so keep checking the Flickr page; there'll be tons of new stuff every day this week until I'm caught up, and then I'll make sure to keep adding photos regularly.

Thanks for looking! Or not, if you're not actually there! (I know that people are lining up around the block not to read this blog.)

Seán the Fashion Model

I have now made my modeling debut, in Issue #11 of Second Style, the premier SL fashion magazine. Ryan's blog is part of the Second Style empire now, and he writes a monthly column in the magazine now called "Men's Corner." That issue's column featured summer wear, and here I am, resplendent in Blaze Columbia's blue seersucker suit.


The location is, naturally enough, Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop in The Big Easy sim, a respectable portrayal of New Orleans' Vieux Carré.

Modeling. I could get used to this.

Something other than a playlist!

Can you tell I had insomnia last night? Not only did I work on this blog that nobody reads, I also finally started uploading pages to the Flickr page that nobody looks at. (Well, that's not entirely true ... the whopping one photo of me on there up until now has had a whopping 210 views, for some reason.)

I've started near the beginning (excluding most shots of me from when my avatar was truly horrifying-looking, like an insane Howdy Doody with a pituitary problem), and will gradually upload things we've done and things we've seen and lots of disgustingly cute cuddly pictures of me and Ryan. That's my fabulous partner, and he's famous too -- he's the editor in chief of Men's Second Style, SL's premier men's fashion blog, and people recognize him when we're out together inworld. Hey, it's fun being his trophy boytoy. :-)
