thank you i have not had the time to sit and write out my thoughts about this past week yet. i know that when i do, i will have a million things to say. until then, i just want to say thank you to everyone. this year had an energy that i have never felt before at fest. and that energy felt like change. i was a small peice of many discussions both publicly and privately that, for some reason, felt very different than in past years. the festival goers seemed to be coming at these conversations this year with their hearts more open to discussion. it was also amazing to see a vast majority of the people in these discussions being older womyn. not that younger womyn are not a huge part of this...but it was nice to see older womyn more interested in hearing all sides and speaking their own truths & fears.so. until i have more time to think my thoughts out more...i say thank you to you all for doing the amazing work that needs so desperately to be done.

On the Road Again (Public) Hi All,I leave in the morning. I look forward to seeing some of you at Fest and others of you at CT. Some of you I won't get to see this year.Wherever each of us goes next week, we all have one thing in common. We came to this LiveJournal because we believe in space for Womyn that includes all kinds of Womyn. That means a lot to me. Thank you all.Thanks,Lorrraine Current Mood:  optimistic (Comment on this) |

am i getting too far ahead of myself??? i have zero time between now and festival. but post festival - i shall have some time this fall. lord knows i like to overbook myself anyhow. we had started talk on a website last year. is this something that is currently in the works or does someone already have their hands in on it? i am by no means a web genius, but i can build some basic pages together. i think it would be yet another large stride for us as an organizational unit. as long as people are willing/able to help with content and wording and ideas for what it should look like - i am game for giving it a build. actually, i think that i shall check right now to see if www.festforallwomyn.org has been taken - if not, i'll snatch it up for us.yessssss?!?!

Public Post Hi all,I'm posting this because all of our post thus far have been friends only posts dealing mostly with internal issues such as discussion of our User info and answering questions about the group. The point of making some posts friends only isn't about secrecy in my opinion since the group is fairly easy to join. Friends only posts however shouldn't, I hope, show up to casual internet searches, which gives people about as much privacy as you can reasonably expect on the internet, ie some but not much.So if you're reading this and you haven't joined the group yet. Go to the user info page and click on the join button and we'll approve you so you can take a look around.Thanks,Lorrraine Current Mood:  curious (Comment on this) |
