Welcome to My Sexmare!

Welcome to My Sexmare!

Frankly, I almost didn’t use this panel—fearing that the imagery would confuse some readers.

In the context of the original 1960s story (see panel below), it’s clear that the woman at the bottom of the panel is dreaming of herself kissing a man.

But, in the Last Kiss version, it looks like some sort of weird Ménage à trois affair…in the midst of some billowing clouds. Hmm. Come to think of it, that works too!

Stinky Rich

Stinky Rich

Below is the original First Kiss romance art from the 1960s. You can tell the guy is a writer (a poet actually) because he’s wearing an ascot tie.

All writers wear ascots because…we can. As soon as I get dressed in the morning (which is usually about 2 p.m.), I put on an ascot.

Sometimes I wear a shirt and pants. But—always an ascot!
