Company Creator
In 1997 Regena English a single 32 year old former Rental Agent, and Financing Consultant began interviewing unmarried women for her book entitled Leather Spinsters and Their Degrees of Asexuality which was self published in January 98 by the newly formed company St.Mary Publishing Company of Houston. Motivated by the interests of her interview subjects (often referred to as leather spinsters) she began publishing a newsletter entitled The Leather Spinsters Newsletter during the month of October in 98. The newsletter based on the triumphs and tribulations of single women consisted of mainly letters from the readers with recipes mingled within.
Once word spread about the publication for single women the subscriptions grew from 1 to 300,000 in three years. In March 99 Regena decided she was ready to organize an electronic magazine which would go one step further than the newsletter and provide an assortment of articles covering topics of interest to single women such as health, career, motivation, travel, self-employment, women issues, and single parenting for the web surfing single woman. She is
a highly sought after writer on the topic of female singlehood and can be read on such sites as Parents-Place.com,Mommiesontheweb.com, Ha! Brought To You By The Lilith Collection, A Writer's Choice, Dateable.com, and Womanlinks.com to name a few.
Miss English expertise of the modern single woman has well-known publications turning to her
for comments when writing articles on the subject, The Chicago Tribune, Christian Science Monitor,Time Magazine, Arizona Republic, and The Houston Chronicle have all sought her opinions.Currently she's the main speaker for the Single Women & Esteem Seminar Tour, a series of seminars created to help women identify and correct feelings of low self-worth.
