Seven years.
Seven years in Second Life as of this past August.
The first two were dedicated solely to combat and making everyone's lives a living hell (and damn proud of it too!)
The next two brought me into the glorious world of exotic dancing, DJ'ing and yes, even escorting.
The final three were dedicated to what I considered my home, the only reason to stay in Second Life and devote my all.
The day I landed in Hard Alley could be considered fate. I met the man who became my boss and in time became a father to me. I met and grew to love those who are now my family. And above everything else, I met my real life soul mate of now two years.
Losing the greatest job I ever had in both worlds was heartbreaking yes, but as in all businesses, changes need to be made to keep the business moving and fruitful.
After countless messages of support and concern from my girls (yes you are all still mine, even if only in heart), I have finally decided to speak, at least here, and make things clear.
I did not quit.
I was respectfully removed from my position as Hard Core manager and Hard Alley estate manager. I fully understand Hard's decision as much as it pains me, but being in his position in the past I know the mind of a business owner and the need to do things, even painful ones, to keep the company afloat.
Hard has been and continues to be one of my very best friends, a man who has seen me in every single emotional aspect imaginable and knows the methods to my own madness very well.
What does this mean for me?
As many know, I am in the process of moving. But, I will also be very freed up in the matter of time very soon. With all the experience I have in the entertainment business (both PG and adult) I know that I will be up and working again somewhere in no time.
With the erotic industry growing to such epic proportions I have also decided to dabble in it again, a seasoned vet looking to mix among the young ones and try to take my place again.
I also hope to start DJ'ing again. I miss the industrial scene and will be looking to plant my roots again as the Queen of the Fetish Ball, your Hard Core Mistress.
I love you all so much. These past years have been so full of every emotion possible. It's been one hell of a ride and I never want to get off.
Keep your heads up my lovies. I'm not going anywhere.
