I was doing all of this 30 years ago and, well, it was all just a bit too serious and heavy then, just like the jeans/whiteshirts/vests uniforms of early dykedom. A little too tight, if you know what I mean. So glad to find you.

Love your humor and the twists of your pen. i will be reading regularly to lighten the s–load of the patriarchy. They’ve always been to blame . .

I’m a native Austinite and writer and I heard about your blog recently from my producer Suzanne Warren, who lives in L.A. and says she reads your blog first thing in the morning everyday:)

I’ve been working in the movement to end violence against women for a gajillion years and love your writing. I wanted to send along a piece that I wrote last week that I thought you would get a kick out of. It’s called Art and Adventure: A Manifesto for Women and Grrls. Here’s the link.

I’m sorry I’m sending this as a comment instead of a regular email. I’m a dumdum and couldn’t figure out a regular email.

I blame the patriarchy, too,
Mary
