Spooky Update

Plans are under way for Halloween across the Isle:

Spooky Halloween: A haunted display on the south side of the island set in a haunted house with a few scary surprises outside. Created by Mutely Latte, Sarah Irling and Jenson Belfire, it is best to set to midnight before you view. We are not responsible for increases in blood pressure.

Witches Hunt: During the final week of October, the island will host a witch’s hunt. Participants will be given a clue to lead them to a witch containing a gift offered by one of the Isle’s merchants. Each gift will contain a clue to the next witch. More details as we close in on the final week. The Hunt is being organized by Trella McMahon.

Monster’s Ball: A spooky Halloween event with live musicians, a dj, costume contests and spooky treats all taking place on October 31. Check the link on the right for more spooky details. (I’m currently working on my own spooky outfit for the Monster’s Ball)

Halloween Decorating: The merchants on Lavender Isle will be involved in a store decorating contest this month. One merchant’s Halloween display will be selected as the winner with the merchant receiving a great prize. In addition, Lavender Isle itself will be under the decorating knife for Halloween, albeit not in the contest. Visit Lavender Isle throughout the month of October to see the ever developing Halloween decorations and displays across the sim.

Executive Assistant: Lyla Merryman joins our Lavender Team as executive assistant. She’ll be working with Trella and me on a variety of projects. She’s a UK lass (our second) and seems to have the same spirit and energy as the rest of us. Welcome Lyla.

New Stores: Our growing list of merchants on Lavender Isle continues with the additions of JS Designs Fine Furnishings & Gifts For the Discerning Tiny and Human, Girls Night Out featuring fashionable accessories like belts, handbags, stockings, socks and bustiers and the resurrection Fashion Factory, an outlet store selling original designer clothing at discount prices. On the horizon is a texture store that Trella and I plan to put up, and a fashion show, but when we have a little more time.

Traffic is up across the island and Gia’s Fashion Cabaret is drawing a decent crowd to its Wednesday events. Tracy Serra, the hall of fame curator and our unofficial videographer has done her second video at Gia’s Fashion Cabaret. She just completed Rara Destiny to join her video of Alex Parsons, both performing at Gia’s and you can see both on utube or just go to the Gia’s link to the right.

With my constant business dealings over my time is Second Life ™, I’ve had to learn quite a lot about the business world in Second Life ™ and real life. To share what I’ve experienced, I’ll be posting a series of articles titled Doing Virtual Business over the coming weeks to offer my experience and advice.

Guess that’s it for now, stay kewl

Ciao for now
