Advanced Fashion Disruption

11/29/2022

I've had a few people reach out to me to ask where AFD has been and whether Miss Megan Summerville and I will be returning at all.

In order.

1. AFD has been on an unexpected hiatus due in part to technical issues that could not be resolved as I had been homeless living in a cousin's garage and sleeping in their basement. Day to day survival became my total focus. Funding my storage ate up the majority of that focus. I have since moved to CO where I ended up in hospital for 11 days being treated for an infection in my blood and big toe which had to be resectioned......so yeah. LIFE HAPPENS and sometimes SWEEPS US off of our feet and onto our asses.

2. Bet your sweet asses Miss Megan of Megan Summerville fine lingerie and I will be returning. As I now live in Denver and am less that 20 minutes from her, we will be able to record from the same room on the same laptop and that means the best recordings YET!
In the New Year we will begin to video tape our sessions for our YouTube Station! Stay tuned for BIG Things and More DISRUPTION!

Thank you Benson
