Happy International Women's Day

Yeah! Another year of waiting is over and it's here! IWD!!!! Happy day to all of you. We have been working hard - and just finished writing our grants for production. We are hoping to be able to continue this work beyond the next few months. And the above rose is a thank you to all of our supporters... more flowers in the making!

In our grant writing we noted that we were privileged to write from places we can call home. Having a place called home means so much - it is a refuge, where we can think, write, imagine. One of the hardest things is to have no such place. To be in places where your thinking is disrupted, where there is no privacy, no sense of justice. There are consequences to a culture that does not provide for all of her citizens. We live these consequences, many of us on an unconscious level....
