Going to give the TL;dr first, because I know I write absurdly long emails, and then the whole spiel will be down below that in case you happen to like email spiels:
Hey! The Desire Decoder, my new 100% free communication/negotiation tool which some of you played with last month, has been updated. I wouldn’t fully say it’s NOT still in beta (because i am extra and if you’ve played with it at all, you’ve seen how very many variables there are 😬), but it’s technically out of beta.
A bunch of questions changed. Scoring got better. Added spider plot view, because those venn diagrams were hard for most people to read, turns out. MOST IMPORTANTLY, I added comparison view so you can see where your desire matches with, complements, and has friction with someone else’s, as long as you take opposite-side versions of the same desire. It’s really cool, I think!!!!
Psst: if you played with the beta version, sometimes your cache/cookies make it so that it doesn’t update. You should see the words “Already have two codes to compare? Skip the quiz” under the big red START DECODING button. If you don’t, clear your cache, hard-refresh using Alt-F5, or try this link instead.
You know what else is really cool? Awesome fear play scenes! Brand new classes! Also, hearing vahavta ramble about horror movies! (heyshutupiswearit’scool). I’m teaching Fear by Design: Crafting Cinematic Horror Scenes with Intention for the first time EVER on July 25. It’s via Zoom and hosted by Black Thorn. Click that link for tickets 🎟 and I’m sure you’ll get some other emails from me about it before then but getting your ticket now is the best way to be SURE your spot is saved! (As per usual, I DO NOT do class recordings for my personal comfort — sorry about that, but if you can’t come, I promise there’ll always be another chance. Including, if you happen to want to join me in Minnesota this December, IN PERSON at Naughty Revival 2026!!!!)
Having finished this portion, I realize I actually no longer am interested in writing the longer spiel, so guess that’s just the email. In a couple of days, my Owner and I go to our annual wedding anniversary “ignore world, read books for four days” trip. Nine years and counting. Expecting to count much higher. Anyway, if you need me this weekend… don’t! Buuuuut in the meantime, feel free to reply to this with your favorite thing you’ve read recently, so I can go into my massive library-raid trip with SOME plan 👉👈
Until we chat next, stay awesome, stay hydrated, and do something that brings you joy.
xoxo,
