Scarlet Letters' Artist in Residence program is designed to give selected artists, writers, poets, and visionaries -- many of them chosen from among the nationally and internationally-known creators who have graced our pages in the past -- a chance to create whatever kind of astonishing, eye-opening, human, progressive, visceral, affecting, delirious beauty the spirit moves them to create, and to share it with us and our readers. The continually expanding roster of Artists in Residence will provide us, and you, with a constant influx of new and exciting material, offering opportunities for experimentation, cross-pollination, and inspiration. We like to think of it as a 1920’s artist's colony for the twenty-first century. So come on in: the artists are unfurling their canvases, the writers are shuffling their manuscripts... our sybaritic, scintillating cyber-salon is already in progress.

12.07.06: Scarlet Letters -- in case it isn't glaringly obvious -- is currently on an extended hiatus. The web has changed, we've changed, and we're trying to figure out how we both fit together now, which isn't a process we want to rush.

In the meantime, by all means, enjoy our years of past content, all of which still remain in the public and subscription areas.

If you're looking for more current SL-related content, you can have check out upcoming books from editor Heather Corinna and previous co-editor Hanne Blank, check out Heather's current sexuality sites, or explore sites through the femmerotic network. We hope to be back with you soon, as fresh, challenging and unexpected as ever.
