For I have friends who dwell by the coast–
Pleasant friends they are to me!
It is when I am with them I wonder most
That anyone likes the Sea.

!bang poses location

Join the !bang vip group for 50% off shopping. Every release for the first 48 hours is marked down to half price. Also, you’l receive 10% store credit on all other purchases when you’re shopping inworld.

The Marketplace: Since movinv the store to Luna’s avatar, this means the Marketplace stores will change. You’ll still get all the older poses since the beginning of the store at the old MP store link. BUT! Make sure you update your bookmarked links with the new MP store!

With that said, my blog will slowly change too. I’ll have more posts, like I’ve been doing, about my store. I style my vendor ads anyway so why not blend my blog and store posts to create style posts. This isn’t to say that I will stop supporting other posers. I love them, and will so show other creators as it fits the style or mood. You’ll just see me more of my !bang poses logo stuff featured.

How’s that sound to you?

There’s an expression in Australia that’s called ‘Go Bush,’ which means to get out of the city and relax. I try and ‘go bush’ to places where there’s no cell reception. But, I don’t get to do that often, so for the most part, it’s just a state of mind.

Thank you for sticking with me all these years as I may have not donned all articles of clothing or even bared it all. Of course all for the name of blogging!

In the middle,
Of this garden of gold,
Stood this one,
Single red stem …

and oh, before I go, the bees are coming…

Here is a little forest,
Whose leaf is ever green;

Where not a frost has been;
In its unfading flowers
I hear the bright bee hum:
Prithee, my brother,
Into my garden come!

How fitting to have this fun pop of color to kick me to blog more consistently again. I was so buried in events for my pose store that I really lost track of new releases and style posts. Hopefully in the coming few days I’ll be able to focus more on putting posts together. I really missed taking photos and playing dress up. Honestly I did!
