Oops

After all my work building on a house I accidentally unlinked the darned thing. I thought ok, no problem, I’ll just remove everything here and rez another copy of the house. Well, I did save a copy — or so I thought — but when I rezzed it again it turned out only part of [...]

Gangsters Around My Shop?

Gangsters Around My Shop?

There’s a guy standing in front of my store that reminds me of Ray Liotta from Goodfellas. Am I being called back to the family? Will I find a horse head in my bed? (Ok wrong movie.) Actually, I don’t think I need to worry too much. He’s made of mesh! He’s also fairly cheap [...]

The Big Picture Game

The Big Picture Game

Hi gang. As of last night I’ve become a beta tester for the clever creator / scripter Fnordian Link. He’s given me the new game he’s come out with called The Big Picture, and once I got the hang of it I found it to be a lot of fun and kind of addicting. I’ve [...]

What I've Been Up To

What I’ve Been Up To

I still have the remodelling bug so started on a house for myself in Moonletters Town. It’s funny to realize I have a whole town and a private platform in the sky for working on clothes, but no actual house. I used to have one and shared it with friends Dugi, Aston, Pay, Seren, Jellie, [...]

Slate Wins Bull Riding Contest

Slate Wins Bull Riding Contest

Slate McLeod is today’s bull winner, and it wasn’t for lack of trying from the rest of us either. Congratulations Slate “King of the Mods” McLeod. Your prize will be delivered today. While I’m mentioning Slate he DJs tonight at Soul Mods (same as every Friday) some come on out and have some fun at [...]

Dolly Boat

Dolly Boat

My sister-in-law was visiting so we went to ride on this boat for an hour and a half. Julian took film footage if you’re interested in the first life scenery.

Be Yourself

Be Yourself

Though there have been complaints about bias in Second Life toward certain shapes, clothes, heights and skin tones — and there’s truth to all of it — I still find SL residents more open to diversity than what’s experienced in first life. There will always be forms favoured by certain groups — no escaping that [...]

Happy Easter

Happy Easter

Whether you call it Easter or Resurrection Sunday, I wish all readers and their families a blessed day!

Dugi Rubble Wins

Dugi Rubble Wins

This week we brought the bull riding contest back to Moonletters Town. A few of us gave it our best shot trying both threats and praise on the bull, but in the end Zorro liked Dugi Rubble best. Congratulations Dugi. Your “prize” has already been sent. Visit Inworld: The Bull

Mood To Remodel

Mood To Remodel

Yesterday I was in a mood to remodel. I try not to make drastic changes in Moonletters town, but now and then I like to see something different. Well, I found something I liked at Inverse. It’s a fully furnished ocean cottage called Malibu. I love nautical things, paintings of ships, etc, so this build [...]

I Miss The Penny Lanes

I Miss The Penny Lanes

The Penny Lanes Circa 2007 (yes that’s me in the red!) In my first couple of years in Second Life the friends I spent the most time with were Marianne Shan and Magdalena Bing. We three clicked together having a deep love for music and all being friends with the SL Beatles. We had similar [...]

First Life Busy-ness

First Life Busy-ness

Good business to start? Though I refer to the virtual world as second life and the place my physical body walks around in as first life (for the sake of clarity) I have always believed it’s just one life. Some think that a person can be something totally different in Second Life than they are [...]

Funny "Memories"

Funny “Memories”

There’s a memory game going around Facebook. You Paste this text in and see what your friends have to say. Leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn’t matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember! Don’t send a message, leave a comment on here. Next, re-post [...]

The Bull is Back

The Bull is Back

Back by popular demand I’m reinstating the weekly bull riding contest in Moonletters town. The highest score on Friday (when I log in) will win a mystery prize. It might be something nice or it might be a booby prize. You never know! If any content creators would like to sponsor the bull riding contest [...]

I'm DJ-ing Tonight

I’m DJ-ing Tonight

I’ll be DJ-ing Soul Mods tonight at 9pm UK time. If you like 1960′s, mod, the Who, The Kinks, Small Faces, Motown, soul, and ska come on out for some fun and banter. Visit Inworld: Soul Mods

Camden Footage

I wish someone would recreate London’s Camden Market in SL. Here’s some film Julian took. The first video was popular so he made another Camden video using extra footage he didn’t put in the first one.

Our Shining World

(a poetry attempt before falling asleep) we move in light that isn’t sun the second day has just begun as we dance smiling in this place here again another Friday we want to hear the music play all together we share the space watch our pixels we come alive within the Second Life we thrive [...]

Promoting Moonletters

At Moonletters we don’t mess around, so when I decided to hire a company to promote this site I knew only the best would do. I’m so proud of this. Thought I’d share this video of Moonletters being promoted. (We’re going to be HUGE!)

My Companion

My Companion

In November of 2012 I wrote about my new buddy, a rescue cat I named Brighton after my Satnav led me to the local pet store instead of my intended destination. It’s been a while so thought I’d give an update on her. Over the last few months Brighton has become my constant companion. She’s [...]

I Don’t Want My Pizza Burning

Found this youtube video. This is funny for all the wrong reasons!

Goodbye Phoenix Viewer

Goodbye Phoenix Viewer

When people get older they occasionally get set in their ways, right? Well, in Second Life terms I’m like a senior citizen now, so I’ve grown accustomed to having things a particular way — especially what SL viewer to use. When Lindens came out with Viewer 2 I hated it, and I’ve been holding onto [...]

Friends: A Random Musing

Friends: A Random Musing

Though the virtual world is fascinating in itself, I must admit what keeps me coming back to SL is being able to connect with others. When I set up an account in 2007 I met people quite quickly, faster than in first life that’s for sure, and six years later I can still call most [...]

Happy Mother’s Day UK

I wrote a big tribute to my mother for UK Mother’s Day but it was too personal so I changed my mind about publishing it here. I’ll just say this. I had the best mother in the world and loved her more than anything. In 2002 she went to heaven due to cancer — she [...]

Flying Visit

Hi gang. I’ve been very busy in first life the last couple of days so my mind has been on that. Going out again today, but look forward to settling in later. Graz has something in the works for Monday and has run some pretty cool ideas by me for Moonletters in the future. Won’t [...]

Second Life Quick Tips – Getting Help

Grumpy Cat

Grumpy Cat

Grumpy Cat is an internet sensation right now. Not a day goes by that my Facebook wall is not filled with memes featuring this fed up feline. Photos show the kitty saying something negative about most everything. Today, though, the cat seems to be seeking a job. How did Grumpy Cat get so grumpy? I’m [...]

I've Been Framed!

I’ve Been Framed!

Virtual Vagabond did it. It wasn’t me! Oh, all right. She didn’t really. She just posted about the mugshot place, so not really her fault. You can get your own mugshot taken for free, but you need an emoter hud for the traumatized expression. (If anyone needs one let me know and I’ll be happy [...]

"I Did Not Attend The Bieber Gig" Says Slate

“I Did Not Attend The Bieber Gig” Says Slate

This will probably be the last I ever say the name Justin Bieber on Moonletters, but we’ve been teasing Slate McLeod for going to the concert with a family member. Last night Slate was back on deck DJ’ing at Soul Mods only to arrive and find several pictures of Justin Bieber rezzed around his DJ [...]

6 Tips For Selling On The SL Marketplace

6 Tips For Selling On The SL Marketplace

I’ve been selling on the SL Marketplace for a couple of years now and have nearly 400 items listed. While the Marketplace will never replace an inworld location for me, I can’t imagine not having it. Sales are good on the Marketplace. It’s the way people tend to shop now, and some creators claim it’s [...]
