Dear Editor, We love the magazine though we think there is one section that could be added that would be very helpful. Have you ever considered creating a "Newbies Area"? I remember how challenging it was being a newbie and I think a whole area chock full of advice and Newbie specific features would be great. Keep up the great work! Sincerely, Suzette Dear Suzette, A newbies area, eh? That's a great idea! We actually always make an effort to run at least one article per issue that is aimed at providing helpful information for newbies. Here's several articles from our past and present issues that may be of help to lifestyle newbies: Protecting Your Privacy Online A Swinger's Style Guide For the Ladies The Art of Rejection The Ask Kasidie advice column is also an excellent resource for newbies. As we amass more content, I'll see about bundling all of the "newbie relevant" articles into one easy to reference place in the near future. Thanks for the suggestion! Sincerely, The Editor

The Cover & Our Unicorn:
This month's cover girl is also our Unicorn of the Month. The beautiful Kitty Wildwood contacted us on our Kasidie Magazine MySpace page eager at the chance to be our Unicorn of the Month. She is our very first unicorn from outside of Colorado (where our Kasidie main offices are located). Unfortunately for us, we only got to meet Kitty via telephone and email. But fortunatly for us, her photo shoot looks fantastic!... Due in no small part to photographer SJB from Miami who wowed us all with his work. I seriously hope we have some more unicorns or couples apply from the Miami area so we have a chance to use SJB as our photographer again! We also sincerely hope that Kitty takes a trip to Colorado sometime soon to visit us!

Our Couple:
We met Billy and Jessyca (THENAUGHTYWATCHERS) while we were at Hedo 3 in Jamaica conducting this month's interview. When we asked them if they'd like to be our next Couple of the Month, they'd already tore off most of their clothing before we'd even had a chance to get the lens cap off the camera! They were a delight to shoot and even more delightful to hang with. If you ever have a chance to meet these two crazy kids, don't pass it up! In the mean time, check their story and photos here.

The Interview:
This month's interview was with Kevin Levee, the General Manager of one our favorite places on earth: Hedonism III. We had a great time talking to Mr. Levee about the history and inner workings of the resort. But we had an even better time around Hedonism III all week! Ya mon, everyt'ing was irie! Read the interview here.

Our New Sexy Crossword Puzzle:
Yes, you read that correctly. Kasidie Magazine now will now be including a monthly sexy crossword puzzle in every issue! it can be found in the humor section. This month's puzzle: Common Lifestyle Terms.

The Articles:
With the elections looming, I thought it was time to get a little bit political in this issue. And nothing says swinger like a conservative Republican!... That's right, swinging isn't just for "crazy hippies" and "wack-job liberals." Mr. E of MONOGAMYSUX explains what it's like to be a right-wing lifestyler in this month's featured article: Conservative... Republican... Swinger?!  

Also, be sure to check out our "Ask Kasidie" and "Ask A. Vanilla" advice columns, full of useful and useless information respectively.
