Of course, not only are the girls in NYC going public and making noise this week. Check out my friend and colleague Alison Piepmeier, Director of the Women's and Gender Studies Department at the College of Charleston, in an ABC news interview about the anti-abortion legislation passed this week in her state.

Read more about the scary legislation here.

Thanks for the shout-out, Deborah! Your class was one of the reasons I decided to speak up, and I'm planning to do more of it. I won't be pitching my non-academic book anytime soon since I'm finishing an academic book now, but I'm cooking up op-eds and magazine pieces as we speak.

AWESOME, A. You might want to think about doing the Woodhull Writers' Retreat -- if interested, I can send you think link! -D

I've considered doing a retreat with the Woodhull folks--I'll have a look at the website and give it some serious thought.
