How am I suddenly busy and have more free time to make stuff?

Weird huh...

Anyway I interviewed my actual nearby neighbour, Quenby Harley @QuenbyCreatives

They were going to do a panel about erotica at Eroticon, before it like everything else was cancelled - so instead I interviewed them about what they would have done, and their various projects:

- Blogging at https://queerdoconfusion.wordpress.com/

- Erotic Performance & Readings at https://www.facebook.com/CocktailsFTales/

- Zines & Badges at http://shop.dragonhide.co.uk/
