No Limits On Creativity

What I love about the arts is that there's no limits on creativity. I have personally seen people's change right before my eyes when he/she creates something from their own imagination.

Last week I performed with a group of about twenty transgender and non conforming people of all ages at the Brick Theater in Brooklyn. The name of the play was 'Resistance'.  I was the second of involvement with the Transgenerational Theater Project. It was also our second performance in two months.

Each person contributed something to the project. We were co-creators along with our wonderful facilitators. The public response was amazing. Many were surprised that we as trans and non conforming produced a quality piece. I would love to bring something like this to schools, colleges, prisons, nursing homes, hospitals, churches, other public venues like the Brick.

This is my way of educating the public in a non traditional setting about transgender people are about. We have dreams, intelligence, creativity, and love.

Chosen Two Female Authors

I have chosen two obscure authors whose books are unknown to most people. Fran Ross had a book published in the 1970s called Oreo. It was the only book by Ms. Ross that was published. Whether she was to write another book I'm researching on.

Jane Bowles's Two Serious Ladies was published in 1943. I don't know of any other book she wrote. I chose these two authors so I"ll see what I can discover.
