Walking on Fire

I walked on fire for the first time, and I cannot even begin to describe how it has changed me.

I am now part of a brave tradition of fierce women who own their identities, love their bodies, and seek to equally empower other women. I will attempt to hold up my end of the bargain while entertaining others and empowering my self; I will purposefully try to share that same love and joy with other women. We can lift each other.

An-tici-pation!

So excited for my Debut at the Black Cat on Friday April 17th. The show looks to sell out, and I’m in a tizzy of last-minute preparations!

I just received word that I’ve been selected to Kitten for the May 15th Performance of La Burlesque Follies, and I’m honored to begin my career so solidly with Gi² Productions.

I’ve also placed act applications for shows in June and August with the Evil League of Ecadysiasts, so prepare to see me get my Nerdlesque on!

New Year, New Pinup!

I haven’t been to visit Stacey Barich of Atomic Cheesecake Studios since last summer for her Film Noir theme shoot, so tomorrow I’m returning to the studio.

I love working with Stacey. Her specialty is in Mid-Century and Wartime cheesecake pinup. In addition to a tribute piece in dedication to my grandmother, I’ll be doing a set of classic American Pinup. A bit of a whirl with a twist of tease.

I anticipate a day of laughter and shining smiles ahead.
