Happy post-Halloween kinksters!
I love this time of year. After the bustle of Folsom Street Fair and our big Dark Odyssey conference, things slow down a bit. For me, it’s a time to go inward. I often spend these darker months writing, exploring, and working on material for next year’s new classes.
I encourage you to take some time to slow things down this week. Connect with the people and things that matter. Listen to the needs of your mind and body.
And if you’re in the US and you haven’t yet: vote. Your voice matters this year more than ever. Please don’t underestimate your own power and importance. This is the most important negotiation you’ll participate in all year.
Now, let’s see what’s going on this week!
This week!
Saturday 11/2

Tuesday 11/5
If you’re an experienced kinkster looking to contribute to your kink organizations and venues, house topping can be a great way to give back! If you’re an existing kink educator, the skills for house topping also generally apply to demos that involve the public (such as what you might do at sampler parties or kink conferences). Interested? Curious? Join us this Tuesday at 6pm Pacific for Tips for House Topping with Miriam Green. Advanced ticketing available on Forbidden Tickets or Plura.
