I wont lie. I’d love you to support my next jump into the abyss by buying and reading any of these, but more than that if you connect with me on youtube I’d welcome some questions and even a chat about it all. After all it can’t just be me, can it?
THE MEMOIRS SERIES:
CONCEPT: WHEN I LOOK BACK, DID THINGS HAPPEN HOW I REMEMBER THEM.
After the break up of a relationship I so wanted to work I started writing a short memoir each year because at the end of each year it felt I had achieved nothing. Absolutely nothing and that year was a waste and that my time was disappearing in a nothingness.
The first one was called Back to Beginning? Because that’s what it felt like, I’d fallen back down a hill and was back at the beginning - or was I.
I’m glad I was curious because each year when I wrote the things I’d done, it was all much better that I had remembered.
I recommend it. Be curious about your messy unhelpful mind.
Now I’m on youtube and hope you will join me. But these books are a testament to fighting the idea that when things go wrong it’s all been a waste of time…

POETRY
I’ve written a lot of poetry in my life time. I wonder where all the scribbles are.
But this one I published because it was such a sad moment and I wanted to capture it.
The title was apt. The Woman That Never Was. Of course I was. But I was never really was-ing.
This photo is of me in a Mexican Luchador fighting mask, with my tatoo and putting on lipstick. I really like this photo.
Behind the mask here I am putting on lipstick. Still ready to fight.
The Woman Who Never Was
RELATIONSHIP MAINTENANCE
FOR MEN
I suppose I need to be bit modern, though I’m not sure how modern this world is at the moment. So here goes. I’m a cis straight gen x, european, athiest (unless things are shit, in which case I too can pray).
My pronounds are: crone, you, tired.
What I can say about this? I have really loved the men I have loved. And that includes my male friends who have been nothing but supportive and protective over me.
Doesn’t mean I didn’t think the straight men didn’t need help….
There’s no grifting here. Just some simple tasks to see what happens.
And I got to the point where I could simplify my recommendations to men in the language I thought they might understand. You should NEVER do anything the first 3 months that you aren’t able to do forever.
Now I made this into a task list.
21 weeks with one small free or super inexpensive thing to do.
