Right this minute, I've got a lot of emotions buzzing in my head but the first things first, way back in April 2005 when I began this page to sift through my own thoughts about sex and relationships, something else happened and that ended up blossoming into other things, like fiction and now, a year and a half after, a small part of this blog is in print in this month's edition of Scarlet Magazine.
Now I don't know what excites me more, but when I saw the cover I was quite thrilled to see Dita Von Teese, and then I was completely awed to see that she is also the guest editor of this month's edition. So excited was I that I almost forgot my own excitment (about my own post within the magazine).
I can't say that the resultant is all due to me, because a lot of it, most in fact, is due to other factors namely people that I hold dear, who have visited this page as well as those who'll silently, but regularly peruse my various shades of sauciness. These factors also reinforce my resolve in regard to submitting my work to various publications, like Scarlet.
A huge thank you to Scarlet Magazine, for publishing a piece from Sexualité, and another huge thank you to Alex and Suzanne, for giving me a view at the pages. I live all the way down here, so it'll be more days until I touch, smell and read the issue. By all means, go and get yourselves (those of you in the UK etc) a copy for the erotica and sexy articles within , as well as the other factor of Dita being Guest Editor of the month. But further along, each month sees sex and eros in the spotlight.
Okay, so now I need a bit of a drink. It's really weird to think that although I've never been to the UK, never touched down at Heathrow, that my entry, and piccie is sitting on a page in a magazine on the other side of the world.
It's surreal!
I'm totally stoked, and if anyone asked me more than twelve months ago whether I planned on taking a sexual detour into the erotic lit arena, I would have been perplexed. It wasn't in the overall plan. Just goes to show.
Life, or 'chaos' in and around, has an odd way of bringing out things.
