Last Night
I DJ’d last night after hearing one of my best SL friends fell and was in the hospital with a broken hip. It felt weird playing music after hearing this news, but my friend would have wanted the “show” to go on. Also, other lovely people were there, so in the end I’m glad I [...]
Soul Mods Tonight
I’ll be DJing at Soul Mods tonight at 1pm SLT (9pm UK). Come have some fun! Visit Inworld: Dugi’s Soul Mods
The Stones
Not long ago I read a little story about a man from a faraway land who found a bunch of stones. Since the stones were hard, he used some of them to shoot birds with, and others to skip across the water. As an afterthought decided to keep one of them. Later, the man went [...]
Before SL
Found this photo of me from ten years ago. A graphic artist named Deb Harris used me as a model for some fantasy art. Yes, the picture is highly edited. My hair is brown, but Deb decided to make it blonde. I have to say, though, my wings look much better in person. So now [...]
Art Box
If you like taking snapshots I found a place called Art Box where they recreate famous photos and paintings that you can “star” in. Here’s a couple of a pictures I took there. Me wreaking a bit of havoc. This is where I write moon letters from. It was fun checking out all the scenes [...]
I’m Not Rene
In case you didn’t know it, I’m on Facebook as Shauna Vella. Well . . . I was out for a while today, only to return home to find some guy had tagged two porn pictures with my name. Due to the tags, I had a photo of some lady doing the wild thing right [...]
Making Friends in SL
My little SL bro, Shane Wildmist, is what you call friendly. If someone new moves into Penny Lane he’ll be sure to greet them so they feel welcome. If you introduce him to a friend, he’ll be hanging out with them before you know it. He and I can meet the same person on the [...]
The Hot Chick?
Was in the mood for something light and silly so watched a ten year old film called The Hot Chick. The film is about a pretty, but incredibly annoying, teen girl who due to an ancient spell accidentally switches bodies with an older man. Ok, so it’s not the Shawshank Redemption, but I was in [...]
Make Comments Easier Now
Hey everyone. I’m happy to report that you can now make comments easier at Moonletters without having to jump through the hoop of registration or having to log in each time. 1. If you want to comment the usual way that’s fine. If it’s your first time there will be a delay before it goes [...]
New Phoenix and Firestorm Releases
I’m lagging in reporting this, but there are new Phoenix and Firestorm viewer releases (if you didn’t already know). This really sparked my interest. Firestorm FUI Beta 4.0.1.27000 Firestorm FUI Beta has a completely new interface which is a hundred times more flexible than previous versions. We’ve even included an incredible V1/Phoenix skin which hasn’t [...]
What People Are Obsessed With: Check Facebook
Since I’ve had a week off of Second Life, I thought I’d talk of something else that many SL residents are familiar with: Facebook. Facebook. A place you can talk to old school friends and read gossip about relatives. It’s such a part of life now that employers have been known to pass over job [...]
Caught a Bug or Something
I’m guessing it’s happened because I’ve been so busy in first life, being cold and walking around for ages, and eating far more junk food than I should have, but I’ve been ill since last night. I woke up clutching my stomach in pain and nausea, and have slept most the day. Feeling a bit [...]
Internot connection
No, the title isn’t a typo. I really did write “internot” connection. I’m still on holiday this week, and I’m afraid if the internet connects at all I’m lucky. Even so, it takes 10 minutes to load one page. I guess this is what happens when you try to connect via dongle in “the last [...]
Soul Mods 9pm UK time
BY SHAUNA SKYE Hey everyone. DJ Slate McLeod has some first life things to do so may be a little late DJing at Dugi’s Soul Mods tonight. I’ll be filling in until he can get there. I hope you come keep me company as we wait for Slate. I’ll be offering up some 60′s mod, [...]
Back . . . For Now
BY SHAUNA SKYE When I’m without Second Life it feels like it used to (in the dark ages) when the internet itself would go down. Even if I can surf web pages, if I can’t log in to SL something is really missing. I finally got the dead modem situation sorted, so am back for [...]
An Update
BY SHAUNA SKYE It looks likes my modem is trashed, and I’ll have to wait for a new one to be sent out. Getting on Second Life other than a minute or two right now is out of the question. Anyone who wants to contact me can write ShaunaSkye@gmail.com or contact me from Facebook.
Bad Internet
BY SHAUNA SKYE Hi gang. My broadband internet is out. I’m writing this post by connecting to a dongle. Need to get things sorted out. Will give you something more interesting read when not pulling my hair out.
A Nice SL Environment
BY SHAUNA SKYE My perfect SL environment includes… Music that I like: Doesn’t have to be my favourite music all the time, but it shouldn’t be something I hate so much I feel tortured. People who talk in open chat rather than just in IMs to each other: Nothing worse than a club filled with [...]

Fixing Myself and My Viewer
BY SHAUNA SKYE Yesterday evening I logged in to find myself not rezzing. I stood there looking like a “curry cloud” (as I’ve begun to call it) and nothing I did would make me rez. I tried all the usual things like rebaking, clearing cache, character tests, etc. None of that worked so I eventually [...]
Portraits By Cisa Batista
BY SHAUNA SKYE Cisa Batista has been working on an art project, and not long ago she asked me to be one of the models for it. I have no idea what the results of my posing will be, but I’m happy to announce she is releasing her art today. Sound Tracks @ The Tokoloshe [...]
Soul Mods Tonight 1pm SLT
BY SHAUNA SKYE Hey everyone. I’ll be DJing at Dugi’s Soul Mods tonight at 1pm SLT (9pm UK). I’ll be playing 60′s mod, ska, a little bit of motown, a dash of soul, and this and that. If you like the Small Faces, The Who, and the Kinks you should enjoy it — so come [...]
Bionic Dugi Audio Episodes
BY SHAUNA SKYE Hi gang. A couple of days ago I gave you the Bionic Dugi film written, acted, and filmed by Slate McLeod. Well, Slate has uploaded the audio episodes of Bionic Dugi, making them available to us. Here they all are (to date) for easy access. The Video Intro… Audio Episodes.. To Be [...]
Linden “Spring Bling!” Photo Contest
BY SHAUNA SKYE Hey, photographers and fashionistas. Linden Lab are holding a fashion photo contest. The goal is to “find the freshest fashion trends happening in Second Life and capture them in a snapshot.” The winners will be decided by the public with a grand prize of 5000L, and 1000L for three runners up. I [...]
The Mind of a Griefer
BY SHAUNA SKYE Last night some guy rezzed about a thousand prims on my land. It caused lag and no one could rez anything due to the parcel being “full.” Before jumping to conclusions I messaged the guy to ask if he was aware that he had done it. It’s not unheard of for people [...]
Bionic Dugi
BY SHAUNA SKYE One thing that’s a real pleasure for me is the time I spend among friends at my favourite SL club, Dugi’s Soul Mods. I’m there every Thursday and Friday at 1pm SLT. On Friday, we get DJ Slate McLeod. It’s no secret Slate plays the music I like best; he makes us [...]
Nicknames
BY SHAUNA SKYE Do you have a nickname in Second Life? Maybe you consider the name you login with to be one, but over time even that becomes like a real identity. So, just like first life, some friends tend to think up pet names for us. My first nickname was semi-chosen even before I [...]
R.I.P. Davy Jones
BY SHAUNA SKYE Sad to hear about Davy Jones of the Monkees passing away. They used to show Monkees reruns on tv when I was a kid, and this is when I first realized how much I loved music. I never missed that show, and got my mother to buy me some of their albums [...]
