Hey naked guys and gals, I'm back from my trip to La Jenny Naturiste Village, and I have to say, Belinda Carlisle was right . . . Heaven is a Place on Earth --- that place, of course, being located on the French Atlantic coast. You can probably guess that this review will be overwhelmingly... Continue Reading →
Sex, Nudity, and Science
Notice: I originally wrote this piece in 2017, when Felicity Jones was still active on social media, and my friend Steve from Allnudist.com still graced us with his insight (RIP). When my nudist content migrated over from my literary blog, I neglected to post this because I was never quite happy with it. Over the... Continue Reading →
Overcoming Shame: A Cancer Survivor’s Openness about Nudism and Body Acceptance
In 2012, I came out to the world as a nudist on social media, proudly extolling the virtues of clothes-free living.

That's the whole point of the lifestyle and an important distinction for me and the tiny percentage... Continue Reading →
Naturism: The Cure for Civilization
OK, I admit, that is a lofty title, and probably not worthy of what you are about to read. Someday, I'll pen a book called The Cure for Civilization (TM), but for now, let me explain what I mean by "civilization." Too often, this complex, messy world we live in---this life geared toward comfort and... Continue Reading →
Ages of Aenya: My Naturist Fantasy Adventure Novel
Fantasy fiction is a powerful way to introduce people to new ideas. Through the lens of fiction, we let our guard down, opening ourselves to possibilities that might otherwise seem alien or taboo. As a nudist and a fantasy author, it only seemed natural that my heroes, Xandr and Thelana, born of the Ilmarin race,... Continue Reading →
Least Likely to Become a Nudist: A Memoir: Part 2
This story originally appeared here: Young Naturists America, thanks to co-founders Felicity Jones and Jordan Blum, two of the most awesome people on the Internet! Please go visit their site! My father was born into poverty, having to sometimes go without shoes to school, and steal money for books. He immigrated to the United States... Continue Reading →
