ALL of the Ladies Of Corazon Leather

This is a letter to the competitors for this year’s Leather Corazon contest. 

There were 5 of you. There were 7 of us, and we had a very tough job. Every one of you brought something unique to the table, every one of you presented with grace, intensity, and drive. Every one of you gave all you had into this competition.  Every one of you would have been the right choice.

To the three that did not win. I have this message for you. 

Come Back. 

All three of you. Come back prepped. Come back stronger.  Come back knowing how to win. You all had such strengths please don’t let this experience of not winning stop you from competing again. I want to see all three of you again, gunning for it. This community can only become better by the three of you returning.

Just a heads up- I want all three of you to speak at the Wet Munch. You three ladies were fierce and strong. We, as in YOUR community, need more of you.  

To the two that did win. Know that the other three ladies where hot on your tails. Don’t let the title year be any different than the competition. 

Prep, fight, win. 

Time will fly. 

You have tons of support, including the three phenomenal ladies that competed against you.  Go to them. Go to your community. 

Never forget that you are not alone. 

There are many who will stop what they are doing and fight for you, with you, because of you. 

Organize your events, play on your strengths. By the end of December have a 3-month goal, a 6-month goal, and a 9-month goal, and stay on track.

Don’t let gossip or hate de-rail you. Don’t let anyone’s agenda de-rail you. 

Stay the course.

This is your year.  

And it has only 11 months left.  

What went Right?

Hello All,
Since Leather Fiesta there has not been  a lot of talk  about what good happened there.
Every event has good and fun.

As  a person  that has organized events, I know how it can  feel  when  something that I put on  goes wrong.
So  what I would like to  invite you to  do is to  put out there what went right for you-

What did you enjoy at Fiesta?
What did you laugh over?

Here is my list:

Sir B's performance- done with such joy!
Carmella
The laughter and camaraderie in the vendor room
BUFFET!!!!
The women's dungeon!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!
I wanted to go to classes!
My Love on stage!
Being a judge!

CEASE FIRE

Hello  All,

This last weekends events have been  very tough  on many.
As people have tried to  voice how they feel, using words like-  hurt,  helpless,  wounded, and scared-  the behind the scenes violence has escalated. 

People being bullied and threatened by people stoking the fires of anger and hate,  and people are having their livelihoods threatened.

What actually took  place on that stage at Fiesta is not the biggest issue. 

It is the symptom much  larger problem. 

I am  asking everyone to  take a step  back this weekend.

To  please stop  the  death threats and the hate mail.

There is no  reason for this.

This does no  good. 

We are all  adults here,  and everyone has a right to  their feelings and position.

Personally attacking people, outing them  to  their jobs,  and threatening people  is NOT what we are about.

In BDSM do  we not preach  the tenets of  OPEN, HONEST, and SAFE communication?

Do  we not say to  the newbies-  if your BDSM  partner stops you from  talking,  tells you how you should feel, and does not allow you to  come to your community for help  and understanding  that they are in a dangerous situation?

So  why are we doing this to  each  other?
