Introduction After much contemplation, I have decided to free the beast that is my other-side. This will now be the official blog for my alter ego and will be VERY different from my first blog over on WordPress "The Queen's Pen Tamed" This is now the home of: "The Queen's Pen RAW" My opinion of it all straight, no chaser, Advil, epidurals or Vaseline. Scared? Go to Church. Stay tuned... much, much more to come. GOOGLE ME, BABY!
