Or actually mollyw, as my Second Life avatar is not-so-originally monickered.
After a week of Real Life minor calamities (nothing serious, just the usual stumbles), mollyw went back to that delightful online world called Second Life, this time in the company of a Real Life friend who has the gorgeous Second Life avatar, Will0w Anatra. Will0w was going to take mollyw shopping for a new skin (ie shape), hair, clothes. And well, the shape is great (I love the broader shoulders), but the hair… omg, I’m having nightmares about the Bozo the Clown perms my mother used to torment me with… the hair is GONE! mollyw is now bald as an egg! And the kind of spiky, Laurie Anderson-ish thing I want her (me? us?) to have doesn’t seem to be so easy to find!
Hoping for help. I’m probably going back on tomorrow morning, after I spend some time today telling Molly’s readers about the upcoming online discussion of Molly’s erotic novel Safe Word at Eden Fantasies.
So stay tuned for more Molly. And more of the feckless, foundering, shiny-headed mollyw too.
And meanwhile, here’s a pic of my friend Will0w on Second Life. Someday mollyw is going to be fun to look at too.

Welcome to Second Life. I heard you visited Alanis Gallery and met some of the living sculptures and Angels there. I look forward to meeting one of my favorite authors (virtually).

Thanks, Frank. I look forward to it too.
If you go to the ‘Members Gallery’ set in Alanis Galleries’ photostream at http://www.flickr.com/photos/56048831@N05/, you can see that young mollyw no longer baldly goes after the attentions of my partner, Sylvia Fitzpatrick. As well as being Second Life’s answer to Gok Wan, Sylvia is also the co-owner of Alanis and the creator of some of the most sensual photographs you will ever have seen – her ‘Critical Curves’ is in the ‘RL Artists’ set in the photostream.
mollyw is still a work in progress, I think, but thanks for the link to Sylvia’s work, Michiel. I’ll be by again next week.
