Christmas is over and carnival has begun, which means my nails have gone from red to purple and my wardrobe from autumn & Yuletide to late winter colors (and once February arrives, that even includes pink). Yeah, I’m pretty persnickety about seasonal colors; as a kid in New Orleans I always wished for seasons, and now that I have them I intend to observe them. On a different subject, we’re just about done with the editing of my documentary, The War On Whores; we’re premiering it at this year’s SASS (less than two months away!) and then we’ll be opening up for screenings. So if you have a group which might like to sponsor a screening in your city, you might want to start thinking about that. And I might want to start thinking about getting off my derriere and putting the last touches on The Essential Maggie McNeill, which I’ve shamefully neglected since September for no reason I can adequately explain to my own satisfaction. Such is the life of a neuroatypical writer sans externally-imposed deadlines; I’m trying to learn not to beat myself up about it.

Hi Maggie! Live to have you screen/book sign at the gallery in Colorado if that would work. Still have your first book out on display 🙂 Best, Ken

Off topic.
I just read about your silly Twitter suspension on Reason. I wanted you to know that I agree that it is “stupid and hilarious at the same time.”
Thumbs up and cheers.
Love the boobs and all the rest but OMG those eyes!
What is SSAS?
SASS is Seattle’s Annual Sexwork Symposium, an several-day, open-to-the-public series of events centered around Sex Worker Rights Day (March 3rd) every year since 2014.
Dear Ms. Mcneill,
Would your documentary also be coming out in DVD format? If so could you present a package deal with your book when you put the finishing touches on it?
