Dear Loves,

With each word I type I fill with anticipation: the hard work of the writers, the staff, the financial backers and myself finally is resulting in a beautiful product. REVEAL magazine which, will be launched May 20th. The magazine will focus on fashion, clubs, people, designers and communities. It truly will be a lifestyle magazine.

If I can give readers anything it's honesty or at least I can give you candor. I'm the type of girl who wears things because they're pretty. I know designers an Sl simply because of memory. I don't wear something simply because "so and so" made them. I still look randomly at places that have free merchandise because I can. I have a simple belief: This magazine will not follow it's predesscors be it real life magazines or secondlife magazines in one simple way. I hate making woman think they must dress a certain way because that's the "norm".

I hate feeling like shit because I don't look a specific way. In real life I'm not a tanned, blue eyed, blonde. Nor, are many of the woman who will read this. I understand second Life allows individuals to fulfil things they nessacarily wouldn't in Real life. Be that as it may allow this to be the time when you can be creative. Show your innerself in away you couldn't in the real world. Yes I understand this is a way to change your flaws but, I say one thing. Embrace them!

One of the possiblities for the cover is a beautiful Model with the loveliest tone of skin and she's bald. One thing I want to do with this magazine is make you feel beautiful. Yes we all like buying hair we will wear once and buying a skin that fits the whole Amazon Goddess look. But, my loves be different. Feel confident and experiment in a world where you can be a dinosaur one min. and then a cat the next.

Alright enough of my rant. This is a magazine done as a great risk to every one involved. Each person who worked on it did an excellent job and I'm proud of them. This magazine has potential.

Kisses for you all,

A. Kazan
