Last month I received a notice from my credit card processor that it was time again for me to cough up my annual fee to Visa. That in itself was irritating, but the fee also went up 25% since last year and that was the final straw. I am so fed up with financial institutions and their endless array of fees and hidden costs that continue to skyrocket for no reason.

Visa charges “high risk” businesses this fee because they anticipate a large percentage of chargebacks and other fraudulent activity. In the four years of running an adult web site I have had no chargebacks and no shenanigans of any sort and they still expect me to ante up? Hell to the no! So I’m shutting down the membership site and converting it to an all third party affiliate affair. I’ll keep some of the photos and bio and to hell with the rest.

Before all of this came down I shot a solo scene in the shower of my place in P’town so I’m going to post that as my final update this weekend. If you have ever wanted to check out my adult site now is the time because it’s going away for good. I will keep it accessible to members for the rest of the summer free of charge because I really appreciate the support I’ve received from my fans – especially those that have been with me from the beginning. (You know who you are.)

June 30th is the final day I’ll be able to accept new members so I hope to see you there. And if you have any difficulty drop an e-mail to my handy web guy and he will set things straight. There have been some communication issues lately and I’m sure it has nothing to do with the processor; however, we can always rectify things pretty quickly.
