I have written songs, poetry and stories for most of my life.
Also read alot and make music.
Have been a part of the Mamaphonic livejournal community for awhile yet only been here a couple of times.
I am a recently single, very poor, lesbian.
18 weeks pregnant as of tomorrow after 4 pregnancy losses in the past 5 years and 2 years of intensive trying.
I have been writing for a queer magazine for the past year and for the past few editions have been sub editing.
But pregnancy has really taken it out of me and I have recently moved states so I have not written much in awhile.
I also live with with my best friend, her wife and their 3 kids so it is a madhouse around here.
Until I got pregnant I was a sex worker and recently due to all the negative books written on sex work and by sex workers and also the books that glorify it I have decided to write a book that states the plain truth.
How sex work is just another mundane profession entered by people from all walks of life and in all headspaces and situations.
Writing is something I really need to do for myself again, it has always been one of my saviours through hard times.
