Hail Dora!
In honor of International Women’s Day, I thought I might point out a powerful symphony written by the Croatian composer, Dora Pejačević (1885-1923). The Symphony in F-sharp minor for large orchestra, Op. 41 (1916 – 1917, rev. 1920; dedicated to her mother baroness Lilla Vay de Vaya), is a sweeping composition and the culmination of her orchestral writing. Pejačević has a substantial body of work,…

Hurricane Child by Kacen Callender

Lessons Learned - A Poem
You are the first woman
that I knew in my life.
Not only did you raise me,
but you taught me lessons
that are more valuable
as the years go onward.
You taught me that kindness
is a very special magic.
Every time you soothed a hurt
with a kiss or a soft touch,
I immediately felt better.
I realized that kindness was like that;
it may seem hard to do,
but it’s the small acts of…

Louise Jameson Opens Up About Ageism in the TV Industry
Louise Jameson from #DoctorWho Opens Up About Ageism in the TV Industry
Louise Jameson, who played Leela opposite Tom Baker’s Doctor from 1977 to 1978, has spoken of her frustration at the way older female actors are treated by programme makers.
Currently playing Mary Goskirk in ITV soap Emmerdale, Jameson said:
“There’s a lot happening in the 70-plus world – and in the 80-plus world, a friend who couldn’t get insurance because of the virus lost a regular role on a…

Beyond The Ink: Make Mine Milkshake
For #InternationalWomensDay, I'm paying tribute to @HeatherAntos, Fabulous Flo, @Marvel and #MakeMineMilkshake for helping me find my way!
March is Women’s History Month. I’ve been pretty vocal since starting to write about comics about the struggles of being a woman in the heavily male-dominated industry of comics. So I figured this would be a good time to do some brief spotlights into the characters, creatives, and movements that sparked my passion for comic books and the pop culture industry.
At this point in my life (and my…

Behold Her
Behold Her
In the sum of it all, there lies Beauty
#InternationalWomensDay #WomensDay #WomensDaypoetry #blackwomen #blackwomenpoet #blackwomenauthors #poetrycommunity #femaleempowerment #womensupportingwomen #support #mentalhealth #relationships #poem
You don't look at me
You used to
Though it was never to see beauty
Was beauty there?
In your eye,
I wonder
Cracks and specks
Errant things
All disected and discerned, under your eye
All the little things,
The desperate things
The shame-filled things
Left to wonder
How desperate I was
To have your eyes upon me
Undiscerning - a simple, admiring gaze
Hopeful for the day
That one fateful day…

Wyrd Ways Rock Show CDVII
8th March was International Women’s Day. It would also seem that March is Women’s History Month. It would have been nice to actually have been informed of that. Anyway, this edition of The Wyrd Ways Rock Show celebrates and commemorates the role of women in Metal.
This one doesn’t just look backwards. I’m not looking at the already established. That’s why Doro, Nightwish, Butcher Babies,…

The Relief of Comedy
In case you didn’t notice it was Comic Relief last weekend:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b006zrvr/comic-relief
Before I go any further I want to say that I think it’s an excellent charity; they help people here as well as in other countries and seem to work by getting alongside people rather then deciding what they might need in a ‘lady bountiful’ sort of way. So far so good. Sadly…

Top 5 female authors
Hello friends!! Welcome to Top 5 Tuesday!! This week’s topic is top 5 female authors!!
You know, with all of the posts we’ve written for Top 5 Tuesday, I was really surprise we hadn’t done a specific top 5 female authors. Like, we do a top 5 new (to me) authors every year, last year we did an old (to me) authors list, and an authors we want to try list. Then when Shanah was hosting, we did the…

Not celebrating International Women's Day
Photo by Polina Tankilevitch on Pexels.com
I just can’t. I am too close to rage about the state of women’s rights in the world today. It’s all cheery to say “Yay, Women!”, but hey, why are we still not being paid the correct rate? Why do republican candidates in the US think it’s okay to play Stepford Wives and talk in mealy-mouthed voices and fight reproductive choice? Why do women and men both…
