Hello!
Firstly, thanks to everyone who stopped by our table at ClitFest. It was a lot of fun. :]
We’ll be having another meeting soon. Most likely on a Sunday, as they tend to be. What location is the most convenient for everyone? Pasadena, Los Angeles, the SFV?
Here are a few little somethings that you may be interested in. That is, if you want your believe in the right to public displays of affection, would like artwork showcased on the side of a building, or would like getting paid for your writing.
