And by ink, I mean verbiage not tatouage.

Since 2005, I've been writing about my passion for tattoos near daily for Needled.com.

Today marks the last day of blogging for Needled ... And the first day on Needles and Sins, a site that talks tattoos and other fine art, plus music, graff, shopping, book reviews, events, and maybe a little bit o' sexiness.

Think of it as Needled Amped with more topics, more features and more kink.

This little blog will transform into a platform for other writers, podcasts, video blogs and maybe even a community where y'all can get involved. Big plans abound!

Highbrow for the underground -- and lowdown on the lowbrow. Something for everybody.

I welcome your ideas and thoughts for this new blogging adventure. Thank you so much for your support.

I smooch you!
