After years of trying to figure out how she manages to juggle writing two blogs, a newspaper column, and various book projects with a blowtorch in one hand and a cupcake in the other, we finally figured out how Fleshbot Gal Friday Violet Blue is able to do it all: she is not one entity as her website and occasional photo shoots would lead you to expect, but is actually the commandress of an entire mini-army of Violet Blue clonettes who scamper all over the Bay Area and the rest of the planet doing her bidding. (And no, not one of them is a porn star.) One of Violet's minions is currently responsible for her new book "Fetish Sex: An Erotic Guide For Couples", which will be the focus of a workshop tonight at the Syren store in Los Angeles; Violet v.23b will be on hand along with sidekick Thomas Roche to "help shy beginners and experienced pervs alike discover, explore, share and enjoy their fetishes". Let's hope she remembers to bring along a mini-Violet or two to hold the camera for her while she's explaining everything you've always wanted to know about fun with latex and human pet play—not to mention any cupcake-and-lace panty action she might get up to afterwards.
