Bio
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ “Love is the ultimate outlaw. It just won't adhere to any rules. The most any of us can do is to sign on as its accomplice. Instead of vowing to honor and obey, maybe we should swear to aid and abet. That would mean that security is out of the question. The words "make" and "stay" become inappropriate. My love for you has no strings attached. I love you for free.”-Tom Robbins +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ My first book, Flowergirls, a Mirroir, has been published and is available by clicking the title below. My second novel, Marne, will be available on September 21, 2011. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Banner Image: Tibetan prayer umbrella, one of the eight auspicious symbols. Portrait of Robin by Duaneart, Dakinis added by Lonnie Lazar. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Tell me more about Chictopia...the site confused me, but things looked so interesting! Does Rita sell there? Can anyone? The pieces are so stunning...
Just Thinking...
April 06, 2011 06:47 PM
Love the sepia tone. With the peasant blouse, it had an old-time feel. I'm looking forward to this every week.

April 06, 2011 06:52 PM
Hi Just Thinking...mostly Chictopia is a site for people who love clothes...some do sell...you need to get permission from Cheri there...if you sign up you'll get a mail from her right away...no..Rita doesn't sell there...she just decided to share some of her things with me which is soooo wonderful...I am loving it! xox
Robin Sneed
April 06, 2011 06:56 PM
Cranky, that's so neat...thank you...I'm thinking of ways to enliven it a bit in the future...maybe locale shoots or something! xox

Robin, this is a great service you are providing. I agree Algis's photos are amazing. I feel sorry for JD; he only had 20 affairs that paltry number doesn't even let him in the OS Play-yaz club. lol R

Rita does good jewels! This was a slow post week wasn't it?

Be sure to stop in and read Bellwether Vance's Red Dirt post for next week. I had a couple of posts that really spoke to me, so maybe I'll pop along a PM so you can review them too (when i have another one). Is this something you'd like?

You are quite videogenic my dear Mlle Sneed ~ look into the camera with some intimacy!
Monsieur Chariot
April 06, 2011 11:21 PM
Gabby, sure! This video series is just this OSer's (me) experience with OS for the week...it's not meant to leave anyone out...and it would be impossible to include everyone...however, eventually...most will be over time...xox

Monsieur...merci! I will try and improve my show hosting skills as I go! Good to see you, my dear! xox

Unfortunately I couldn't hear you even with my sound cranked all the way up. But gosh you're cute!! (relax - I'm not making a pass - I have grandchildren older than you).

May I suggest that you look directly at the camera when you are talking? Watch the people on your favourite newscast to see what a difference it makes.

I sooooooo wish I could her you though!

;-)

Oh my, what a lovely way to open Open Salon today. To see you in person. And to hear in spoken words what's going on. I've only been on Open Salon a few months, but with the SKC now gone, I feel I've lost my niche ... for the time being. Will keep posting. Thanks for doing this.

Sadly...it was only 19 and a set of question marks...so my confession does not ring true.
Just as sadly, my idea of an "affair" is an animated discussion about the merits of poetry as a means of emotional communication.

A "play ya" I am not.

But I did enjoy the bantor that day!!!
