Bad Feminist II – Patricia Harris
I stood there,
face to face,
with the reason that
Feminism exists in the first place.
someone who saw gender
as a reason for the world to divide,
only this time I was on the
wrong side.
She spoke of hatred,
and separation of men,
she said that the patriarchy
demanded it.
I guess I am a bad Feminist
in the end,
for I don’t see
her reality.
Hatred of any kind
only seek to increase the divide,
the only way I think
that things should be,
is with complete gender equality.

Saturday Funday Party
Hello, My Lovelies! This is my Saturday Tea Today I am drinking a peach cold tea.
Tomorrow (Well tomorrow when this releases…lol) is my 47th birthday. Due to a lot of stress, I really have been hit or miss posting. I spent nearly two weeks fighting a stress migraine that I would never want to face again. I am going to try to get back onto a semi-normal schedule, but I have a lot going on. Most of it is for Fae Corps.
We are doing a poetry contest this year… And we are as busy as one-armed paperhangers otherwise.
If you missed it Ashira Datya released her second book in the Magik Saga – Evil resists on the 10th.
Raz T. Slasher is releasing Book two in his Riverside Chronicles – Silence is Crimson Homecoming on April 20th. I don’t have the link for that yet…
Gathering Teardrops is done being written – But my schedule is crazy…so I will be releasing it May 6th.
My Next Volume will be split between Handprints on my soul and Fighting Ignorance. This is because with the state of the world I am writing more political poetry than I ever expected myself to…But I am not writing only politics. Handprints will be everything else. Fighting Ignorance may take longer than a usual volume…
In April I will be releasing the next Pip the Pup story. I chose the release date because it is my mommy’s birthday. I felt like it was appropriate.
Fae Corps Has two anthologies releasing June 1st. One was my project from the beginning. Grandmother’s Wisdom. It is a gorgeous book. I love how it came together. I am going to be meeting with representatives from No Kid Hungry next week to find out how to give away half of the proceeds from that anthology. (I reached out because I want to do it the right way, and they are going to help me to do the work to make it shine.)
The other anthology, Seeking Stories, is in the edit stage. So I am working on that. It is filled with fun adventures.
That leaves me very busy when you add in life, writing, and other responsibilities. I have done half decently considering. 47…Yeah I never expected to make it to 30, so each year just brings more surprises.
I am going to post my random if ya wanna’s not because I am asking for anything…but in case anyone is interested..

I find that the thing I would love most for my birthday if I am honest is someone to review my books, or tell me what they liked or disliked about what I have wrote. It means so much to know what I am doing matters.

Artsy Fartsy Thursday
Ok I have a question. What is art? Each person sees art differently. This was photo manipulation. I think of it as art…But I know others will not. When you are looking at creating you need to answer that question for yourself. What do you consider art? It will make creation flow easier if you have the answer.
