Over the past couple of weeks, my real life has been a bit weird, and sometimes I just need to disconnect and find some peace. That’s where Second Life comes in. Because as soon as you log in, you enter a whole new world where you can travel to different destinations with just a click…

‘Waarheid, the Exhibition’ open till 31st January!
After the premiere of Waarheid and the release on YouTube (you can watch the movie, for free, here), Huckleberry Hax officially opened WAARHEID the Exhibition. It is cool to see so many people have visited the site already and took pictures! The exhibition consists of the sets Huck built for the movie, the cave being…
Limitations are self-imposed
What better way to start the week than visiting an epic, psychedelic art installation? I know: nothing! Limitations are self-imposed is a colourful piece of art byu Regi Yifu, in which you can let yourself go. Bright neon walls that change colour, trees and birds surround you when you start walking. Perfect for a bit…
Welcome to the jungle: Elephant Island
Fun fact about elephants: Elephants have around 150,000 muscle units in their trunk. Their trunks are perhaps the most sensitive organ found in any mammal – Asian elephants have been seen to pick up a peanut, shell it, blow the shell out and eat the nut. Elephants use their trunks to suck up water to…
In Second Life, the mountains rise

Simply gorgeous and inspiring! Fog and mist envelop the mountaintops A ethereal veil, a dreamy crop Of wispy tendrils, swirling…
Countdown to the big night, and things you won’t see!
After almost 2,5 years of filming Waarheid, tomorrow is the big night : the world premiere, at 1:30 PM SLT in the Film Threat Cinema. It would be awesome if a large crowd shows up, but if you can’t make it: the YouTube premiere is set for Friday 16 december, at 2PM SLT. I am…
Three beautiful winter regions
This is going to be a busy December, with the premiere of Waarheid in less than two weeks! Exciting times though!Did you know Huckleberry, AJ and I will be in the live LabGab talk show with Strawberry Linden next week, to talk about the movie? Huck has all our important dates in his blog! Anyway,…
My ‘come back’, though I never left
What’s up with the title of this post, you might ask? Well, I have been on a blogging hiatus for a long time. But I never left Second Life. In fact, I have been quite active in that awesome virtual world! The thing is, some 5 years ago I thought I needed glasses, which was…
Not as good as my old pop-up book
In 1978, when I was a young, innocent, Caity, I had my first crush. The object of my affection was Han Solo – later I learned this was Harrison Ford, but for me in those days he was Han Solo – and I was deeply in love with him. My grandfather bought me a pop-up…
‘Come as you are’ – for Art at the Park
A few weeks ago I got an invitation from Inara Pey, who invited me to display my work at Holly Kai Park – for their monthly exhibition ‘Art at the Park‘. I was hesitant at first, it is no secret I am not a fan of SL photo-works being displayed Inworld. I simply do not…
Stop.Reset.Breathe – A reply-post
My friend Beth has gone through a rough Second Life summer and today she posted an article on her blog, explaining why she has reset her Second Life past and purged her Flickr, virtually erasing a couple of months. I think we, Second Life residents, can relate to that. Second Life is, for most, not…
Reciprocal
Reciprocal, one of those words I cannot pronounce out loud without breaking my tongue. Admitting the Dutch word for it (wederkerig) is so old-fashioned, I doubt anyone born before 1960 knows what it means! Why this pondering over a word I cannot pronounce properly and which is so out of date in my native language?…
Hunting Hollows
In the mood for some SL exploring, I ended up at Hunting Hollows. Yeah, it is a Halloween themed sim, but a pretty cool one for just wandering around – even when you are not into Halloween. Upon landing you are offered a folder which contains a flashlight, handy…because the place is quite dark. Very…

Originally posted on What the Huck?:
I’m drawing the AFK series to a close with a fifth and final novel, AFK, Awaiting. The book has been finished for a few months, now, and I’m grateful to the feedback I’ve had since from a small number of advance readers, in particular Caitlin Tobias and Zoe Parness…
When life gives you pears!
Over the past years I started some groups on Flickr – with themes. Just for fun, so people could add their photo’s that fitted in the same theme and so create some wonderful collections for all to enjoy. While it was fun at first, it became a burden – specially the past 2 years. Oh,…
Maybe that is why
the old man could not remember and didn’t recognize any of his children, nor his wife except the little pup his daughter brought on visits he knew her name and her favourite treats maybe that’s why when the old man went on his last journey the pup, just like that, traveled with him so he…
