2013 Highlights – Including Twerking!
2013 is over and done with–good lord it was challenging but there were also some highlights. I shook the hand of Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor–jealous? I attended an event where actress Eva Longoria interviewed Sotomayor about her new book My Beloved World. At the end of this amazing meeting of two powerful Latinas, Sonia […]
Soft Shoulder Ahead
Am just back from a road trip. During the long drive I listened to way too much talk radio. Diane Rehm still trying to get a caller with a horrible signing-up for healthcare story. No one called. BBC covering the Ukraine uprising over joining the European Union or having Putin cut off their gas supplies […]
In 2014, I Will Watch Every Lesbian Film!
Every year I make a set of New Year’s resolutions. And here it is December 2013 and as far as I can tell, I did not get taller or thinner. I did not go on an Olivia cruise, read the Diary of Miss Anne Lister, religiously peruse every Epochalips article nor did I watch all of the […]

Pratibha Parmar’s Film ‘Beauty in Truth’
Pratibha Parmar’s new documentary about Alice Walker opens with visuals from the rural, poor South of her birth. The tattered shacks, frayed and proud people are not what we (non-Southerners) associate with the 20th century. The film and those images remind us that Walker is one of the most phenomenal literary figures in that 20th […]

Lesbian Sex and Relationships in Film
What was the Casting Director Thinking? I am someone who has been in love with movies of all kinds since the moment I saw Anne Bancroft straddle the bar stool and finger her earring in The Graduate. That same year (1967) the extraordinary film The Fox starring Anne Heywood, Sandy Dennis and Keir Dullea was […]
What’s new for 2014? Sex and Magical Thinking
Imagine you could have anything you want in 2014. Would sexual feelings be on your list? Whether alone or with a partner, would you like to feel more sexually awake, curious, open to intimacy? If wanting could make it happen, would you want to feel more sexual in 2014? The magic lies in saying to […]
A Wild and Precious Day with the NYAD
Diana Nyad has proven that it’s possible to do anything we set our minds on. Diana lives by Mary Oliver’s famous words “What will you do with your one wild and precious life?†When I arrived at Olivia Travel’s week at Club Med Ixtapa a day late, I was horrified to find out that I […]
New Music – ‘There is No God’
I have spent the last twelve years impersonating a 70’s country western star named Kitty Rose. Kitty had a loud personality, drawl, wearing cheesy western suits and large cowboy hats. “Kitty” sang (and very well, I might gloat) her own original country western tunes along with classics from Tammy Wynette to Loretta Lynn. Then a […]
