And now for something completely different.

Hi there, it's been a while since we've updated, but we are NOT dead. RK Inc. is definitely going through some changes and renovations, but we are still here, and bringing you some fresh new-new that we've been working on for a few months. It's taking a while for things to get back to our normal (What is that, anyway?) and we appreciate each and every one of you for sticking with us.

RK: Field Stories is an effort by M3ss to bring you some insights into the behind-the-scenes of the play parties and fetish nights we all love so much. Let her know if you are into this stuff, either on her Instagram, or you can email us at readingkinky AT gmail.com and send your feedback that way. 

This first of Field Stories is an interview with Lux Valentina--local burlesque performer and organizer of Spice, one of Raleigh's most popular and longest-running fetish events. M3ssalina sat down with Lux to talk about the beginnings of Spice, how it's grown over time, the logistical and legal challenges of running a fetish event, and glimpses into what makes the event so special.

Note: This piece should be considered an opinion-editorial work. The views expressed in this interview are not indicative of any endorsement by Reading Kinky or its organizers. 

Enjoy!
