Behind the mask…
Eva Harley is the person behind the avatar, or is that the avatar behind the person? I exist in all worlds, I am simply me. Find here random thoughts, feelings, information, ideas, possibly inspiration, and hopefully laughter and smiles. I embrace the unusual, long to be within the world yet also outside of it, watching and marching to my own drum, creating my own beat. This is my canvas, Second Life the world between worlds that is my playground. My life is what I make of it, and here I share for both you and I alike.Dance Venue Blogs

Particle Stores – Favorites
Interesting thought…the first inclination was to “hide” the stores I use, so that my dance effects can be “different” and “special”. It took only a few seconds before I totally nixed that idea. If we don’t encourage support of the … Continue reading
