Full Disclosure

Today the FCC ruled that all bloggers must disclose whenever they receive payment or other compensation for publishing reviews of commercial products and entities.

Aside from a few links to Amazon.com in the early days of this blog, I receive absolutely nothing for any of my writings, and I accept no advertising. No compensation from nudist organizations, venues or publications. Nada. Not even a PayPal "tip" jar. I make my living elsewhere, this is a labor of love.

I made this decision a couple of years ago because I wanted to remain an independent voice. Everything I've written is solely my personal opinion. In four full years of blogging, I've never had to retract or delete anything I've written, only an occasional grammatical correction, or an update.

I've nearly packed it in a couple of times, but as Michael Corleone once said, "Just when I thought I was out...they pull me back in."

Thanks to all who visit every day, and to those who take the time to comment, a special appreciation for your valuable input.

Thank you for being a voice for true naturism.

No commercial or other outside influence on your writing is just one more reason why I appreciate your blog. Thanks for keeping it real.

I don't aways agree with what you have to say but I think it needs to be said anyway. The nudist community needs people like you to offset the irrational voices we hear daily in the print media and elsewhere. Thanks for hanging in there
