about me
"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone ... People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed and redeemed and redeemed. Never throw out anybody. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm. As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands. One for helping yourself, the other for helping others." - Audrey Hepburn.

Sister-self

Daughter-self

Self-same Being

In us

One Goddess

Looks out through my eyes and sees you

And joys in the youth and beauty of you

And knows the potency

The poignancy

The pleasure of being you

And sees one self in us both.



Knowing Woman,

Unfolding in wisdom with each petal

That ripens in the heart of the Divine One,

Is living Goddess in us -

Forgetting and remembering,

Dancing in dim dream and in the light,

Daughter, Mother, Sister, Lover

Yet ever the same.

Her song sings within us -

I am many, we are One.

- Diana Young

My Testimonials

March 28, 2007
Autumn will eventually make someone very happy.
January 25, 2007
Autumn, you alluring, enticing woman, you!
I've just gotten to know Autumn this year as fellow castmemebers in N. French Postcards and we've become conversationalists after a fashion. She is so wonderfully calming and calm in the midst of backstage chaos and always so elegant and composed. She's right out of the 40's and could've been with Bogey in Casablanca. She's incredibly intelligent, runs her own successful business and is as easygoing as one could look for in a friend. I'm fortunate to call her friend and glad we've gotten to know each other. Between your looks and your smarts, the world is your Oyster... Oohh, who ya gonna enjoy that with, hmmmm?

If you're reading this and you don't know Autumn personally, you're to be pitied. She is one of the three most wonderful women in the world, one of the apples of my eyes, and one of my inspirations.

I consider myself the luckiest man in the world, for my relationship with Autumn will never end, for she is my chosen daughter, and I her chosen Pop.

That said, I will tell you with all sincerity that you will never find a more honest heart. Lord knows, she's saved me from self-destruction just by her presence in my life. I can think of no greater honor a person can have than to say that Autumn loves you.

She is kind, warm, generous, witty, gracious, courteous, compassionate and clever. And tactful and patient and thoughtful. Her considerable outer beauty is almost a match for her inner beauty. Or, in a word, wow.

Autumn knows nuns.
Real ones.

I'm not kidding.

My Blog

I have a really great project coming up. Dark Garden and Catherine D'Lish will be collaborating on some of the sparkliest, most luxurious corsets you've ever seen.We've worked together for years on Dita's corsets, and made the red tails for Christina Aguilerra together. We've worked out many of the logistics, but need a name. The obvious simply won't do...Dark and Delicious conjures up too many double entendres of the juicy sort. Our friends in Pittsburg already have Delicious Corsets...Delic... read more

Anyone else recovering from the Las Vegas Exotic World weekend? If so,
you maybe experiencing withdrawal from four days amongst some of the
most talented and gorgeous burlesquers from across the country. In that
case, our doctor recommends adjourning to Little Minsky's this Thursday
for a fix of vintage frivolity and sumptuous showgirls. (We have the
very best doctor, even if she does look suspiciously like a bartender.)
