British writer Kathy Lette, “the mouth from the south”, will be in NYC next week, June 28th-1st promoting her new book, “Dead Sexy.”
Here’s what her home-town has to say about that!
“Lette Loose. New York is on a new terror alert. Kathy Lette is heading Applewards to launch Dead Sexy, promising: ‘Champers and quiplash.’ How we’re going to miss her!” –The London Observer, June 20th

(PRWEB) June 26, 2004

“I don’t recall reading the book so much as DEVOURING it. I was fascinated. The honesty of the story makes it hysterical and terrifying at the same time.” Â?Kylie Minogue, Entertainer

Dead Sexy

By Kathy Lette

Kit Kinkade is every womanÂ?s fantasy and nightmare wrapped up into one. Sure, he sports trampoline-taut abs and radiates sexual charisma. HeÂ?s also an enigma who travels under a false passport, carries a switchblade, and has more skeletons in his closet than clothes. Shelly Green, a jaded bachelorette who believes Â?nice guyÂ? is an oxymoron, knows just how to handle a man like Kit KinkadeÂ?she marries him on a reality TV show.

DEAD SEXY (Atria Books, July 2003, $ 23.00) is the latest comic outburst from internationally bestselling author Kathy Lette (Nip Â?nÂ? Tuck, Altar Ego). Elle magazine writes that Lette Â?breaks through taboos with a wit so daring youÂ?ll gasp at her bravado before you laugh out loud.Â? In this topical, tropical farce, Lette proves once again that humor is the best weapon in the war of the sexes.

Shelly, a self-diagnosed misogamistÂ?allergic to marriageÂ?is convinced that if vibrators could Â?kill spiders in the bathtub, kiss our upper eyelids and tell us we donÂ?t look fat in stretch lycra,Â? then women wouldnÂ?t need men at all. So how does she get married on a show called Â?Desperate and DatelessÂ?? Blame technology: a computer predicts they will make a perfect couple, even though Kit looks like a Greek god and Shelly describes herself as Â?human muzak, fading into the background.Â? The multi-orgasmic romp in a limo might have something to do with it. And sealing the deal: a huge chunk of cash, if they can survive their honeymoon on a paradise island.

Hunk, chunk, and paradise? Shelly decides she has nothing to lose. . .except, perhaps, her sanity. Once the vows are exchanged, her tall and handsome stranger becomes just plain strange. His flowing blonde mane turns out to be a wig. He refuses to share a hotel

room and gets chummy with Coco, a nightclub singer whose IQ approaches her bikini size.

Kit is surely bad news wrapped in great pecs but Shelly canÂ?t get those pecs out of her system. At one point, she laments, Â?The only thing missing was the Â?666Â? tattoo on his forehead.Â? But then why is her libido the size of the Indian Ocean? Can Shelly salvage her made-for-TV marriageÂ?or at least get Kit back in the sack? Why is Kit so

mysterious? Why are they sharing their honeymoon with a band of nationalist militants, a deranged ex-wife and a psychotic police chief? And whatÂ?s that gun doing in ShellyÂ?s panty drawer? In this tropical farce, love may be blind, but marriage is the real eye-opener.

With DEAD SEXY, the reigning Â?queen of quip-lashÂ? delivers a painfully hilarious report from the front lines of the sex war.

Kathy Lette first achieved literary success as a teenager with her novel Puberty Blues, now a motion picture. She has worked as a newspaper columnist in Sydney and New York, and has written television sitcoms in Los Angeles including Â?The Facts of LifeÂ? sitcom starring George Clooney. Her novels, GirlsÂ? Night Out, The Llama Parlour, Foetal Attraction, Mad Cows, Altar Ego, and Nip NÂ? Tuck, are all international bestsellers. Lette lives with her husband and two children in London.

If you’re considering a career in tattoo artistry, then you’re probably beginning research on what kind of supplies you’ll need. You’ve probably also discovered that there are seemingly thousands of tattoo supply vendors, and unfortunately discovered that these vendors tend to focus on selling to larger, established tattooing facilities. Of course, beginner tattooist need a start too, and will need to find a tattoo supply vendor that will sell them the supplies they need, such as tattoo kits, inks, and designs. When the tattoo supply vendor industry is looked at as a whole, there are about a handful that sell supplies to beginners, but it’s worth your time and research to find the few vendors that do and that you don’t order supplies from online auction sites or order cheap, wholesale tattoo supply products from questionable sources, like companies overseas that you can’t find any information about.

When you’re just starting out, you’ll want to order from a tattoo supply store that has good feedback, that offers things like a satisfaction guarantee, and that you can find reviews about. There’s no way to kill your career faster than to buy tattoo kits from a untrustworthy vendor and end harming your clients by giving them bad tattoos, or worse, by spreading disease or illnesses with dirty tattoo supply products. As a beginner, you’ll first need to find some good tattoo kits, which will include the main and most important tattoo supply you’ll ever need: a good gun, also called a tattoo machine. The tattoo machine is the primary tool utilized in tattooing, but it would be absolutely useless without using other supplies that you’ll receive in your beginner tattoo kits. You’ll also receive extra things like needles, ink, and a power supply, which you’ll need in order to run the gun.

 

In tattoo kits, you’ll generally get one type of needle, which you’ll put into the gun. You’ll most likely receive two different kinds of needles in most beginner tattoo kits; a shading needle and a liner needle. Ink is then put into the machine, and then the needles are dipped into the ink before proceeding to ‘prick’ the skin in order to deposit ink into the skin.

 

Sometimes, a power supply is not included in beginner tattoo kits, so make sure you find out if it’s included, because of course without this, all of your supplies will be useless.
