Good morning, creatives! I've been too busy lately, dashing off here and there. I need to be in one place for an extended period of time to get my creative juices flowing. That won't happen for another week yet. Sigh. Ah, well. I'll edit. #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

@authorsguild.bsky.social In the 1960s gay/lesbians were denied service in the Peace Corps. If discovered, they were summarily dismissed, shipped home with no supper. One determined lesbian made it through the selection maze to serve in Somalia. This is her story.

@authorsguild.bsky.social Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, the brilliant 17th century Mexican nun, had two passions in life: Poetry and the Viceroy's wife.

Send to your reps: Pass Jt. Resolution NOW: "Mr. Zelensky, we are so sorry. We apologize for the hissy fit of the kid in charge. The citizens of the United States respect and honor you and your country." A simple statement. If Congress can't support it, they should all be kicked out. #Ukraine

Ms. Angelou no doubt did many splendid things throughout many lives. #feminism #blackhistory #womenshistory #poets #writers

"The Year of the Child," just out today. As a 15-year-old, she abandoned her child. Now she turns over heaven and earth to find that child. A thoughtful story that so many women can relate to, a story we need to hear. #feminism #mothers

I get requests for money to “fight” the oligarchs securing power. But the best way to use our money is to disarm them and starve the corporations. Step down, step away from big box, step toward local vendors and farmers markets. It matters. #consumer #politicalpower #localpower

If you could stage a presentation of your best work, where would it be? This is from "First Dream", Sor Juana's lyrical masterpiece, presented at the Cloisters. What would yours look like? #poets #writers #writerscommunity #booksky #drama #poetry

If you are in the NY area, treat yourself to the spectacular new #opera of the #sorjuana #poem, "Primero Sueno." ("First Dream") It winds through the Cloisters, with dancers and audience following. It is the sole poem she wrote only for herself, a masterpiece in every respect. #poet #poetry

"All life is interrelated, and we are all caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be." ~ Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Eleanor Roosevelt is my she-ro in so many ways. She led the fight for women's rights at the UN, fought for recognition of black pilots in WWII, led a coterie of women who supported each other, and so much more. #womenshistory #womensrights The lady had moxie.

May there be peace and joy in your world this new year. #writers #authors #writersguild

Me too. But mine had chocolate, cinnamon and vanilla. (It is also how I will start the new year.)

Good morning, creatives! May the muse sit upon your shoulder this New Year's Eve! #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity #SkyBooks

So often I see hugely popular books that are just "meh," while really good books sit, undiscovered. I think big publishers need to find a way for real people to pick the books that will be published and promoted. #booksky

My perfect scene for greeting a new year.

Amelia Earhart had it right. So often, it is the decision to act that sends us around the world.

But we will help each other, likely more than before, and that will make us all stronger
