Stereotype and other things

I am not your stereotype
I refuse pink and flowers
Yes I am a girl
I don't have to be pretty
I don't have to be a mother
if I choose not to be

I am not your stereotype
I refuse make up and pedicures
Yes I am a girl
I don't have to be obessed with my appearence
I don't have to spend my money
on clothes and lipstick if I choose not to

I am not your stereotype
I refuse to conform to what you expect of me
It's all the brainwashing media you see
I can be who I want to be
I am a grrrl.

another review on the girls are

Essex Poetry Festival is running a competition and I'm wondering whether to enter. There are money prizes and the chance to read the poems at the festival (which I would find very difficult) I can enter one poem or 4 poems. What do you think- should I enter even though I'm really shy- and if I enter what poem/poems should I enter?

and more reviews!

Since I last posted, I've finally joined The Girls Are and have had two reviews up
Lulu and the Lampshades
Carol Bui

I'm working on some more for them as we speak as well as Joyzine, waiting to hear about possible press passes for a few gigs too.

creative writing wise apart from editing my novel and going to a writers workshop a few weeks ago I haven't done too much. I've had a few lines randomly appear in my head but never any further at the moment.

More reviews

I've had a few more up on Wears The Trousers
Religious To Damn and The Mummers


I'm happy to say I've just been accepted on another site as well now- Joy Zine doing reviews and maybe some features as well. They don't have a specific style policy so hopefully they won't be edited so much (like sadly the WTT one's are) and I'm already awaiting two potential press passes for gigs, so I'll keep you posted!

Since I last wrote..

The F Word printed my review about the Cookie Party gig I went to last November:
http://www.thefword.org.uk/reviews/2011/01/cookie_party_de

I've wrote a mock review for the girls are website, awaiting feedback, but I have wrote some 'professional' gig reviews on my music blog http://djmoonlightmusic.blogspot.com

I'm now a music reviewer for Wears The Trousers, I have one review up so far:
http://www.wearsthetrousers.com/2011/01/callers-life-of-love/
there's one awaiting publication, and I'm working on another. The bonus about this is I get to listen to new albums for free!
