I am slowly trying to bring my publication date back to the first week of the month. ECLIPSE Magazine has a fairly large group of contributors and publishing monthly makes it difficult to really move it up too much more than the previous month. We have been doing it though, and I am so incredibly grateful for the team for all the work they do. And for putting up with me. This month on the cover, I feature Will Corrigan. He is the creator behind Fourth Wall, the mastermind of Builder’s Box, a real life entrepreneur with TeaMates, and he happens to put up with me with our event company: Basic Boyos. No matter what he tells you: We came up with that name together. I truly am honored that we have the opportunity to tell you his story this month. It is inspiring and is a true testament to how in Second Life the only limitations placed on you are the ones you place on yourselves. Furthermore, it also highlights the positive impact this virtual world can have on our real lives, as well. We have a total of 10 pieces this month with a new feature called “SL Fiction.” Instead of showcasing a roleplay community, we bring in a guest writer (and photographer) to tell us a day in the life story of their roleplay character. For this issue, Cas (BrokenLovely) kicks off the inaugural piece. Also, my publisher’s photograph I didn’t take. I actually pulled it off Autumn’s flickr because she’s incredibly talented. Even when she’s busy with her own work and has deadlines pressing on her, she never fails to help me with ECLIPSE Magazine. Her constant support and words of encouragement mean the most to me. With that, I do hope you enjoy this issue and happy readings!
