Thanks for friending me, Tina. And welcome to Orange County. I haven't found a writer's group in the area and I've been here in Laguna Beach forever. Of course, right now I'm not looking, too busy getting on the…
Tinamarie Bernard replied to the discussion 'SHE WRITES ANIVERSARY- ORANGE COUNTY' in the group She Writes in California
Greetings - I just moved to Orange County and would love to join a writers group, maybe meet on a monthly basis to support one another and such. I'm in the Huntington Beach area and will gladly participate in an existing group, or if the need…

Thanks Denise for your friendship request!
Tinamarie Bernard commented on the blog post 'Keeping Silent about Rape'
An excellent essay and I can imagine it wasn't so easy to write. I want to respond to one comment below. Scars writes that "it seems police in Canada, themselves, are more interested in justice than American police." I am not Canadian…

There's a group in San Diego? That's actually better for me because we may be moving that direction. Do you know who's in it? I'd like to get in touch with them too... :)

Yeah, I think Green Prophet is a great initiative and it's also unique. Yeah, it'll be great to get the SoCal She Writers meeting maybe once or twice a month! Some She Writers started a meetup in San Diego so it'll be good to have one…

I follow someone who I believe either writes for Green Prophet herself or is just obsessed with it because I see her posting articles from that site a lot. She is the founder and editor of a blog called Muslimness. Have you heard of them?

That Kiss | April Poetry Month
Posted on April 25, 2011 at 11:07pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
We each can remember moments in past relationships that grew us up somehow. After the longing and hurt fade, we are left appreciating how we changed and were moved by love. This poem reminds me of this, and how even after your last goodbye, you're still in each other's hearts somewhere.
That Kiss
Sitting side by side
I saw the smoke in your eyes…

A friend shared a profound essay recently, and since then I’ve mulled over her insights, the kind that can only be described as contemplative, juicy, sensual, and rich; the sort of essay that I wish I’d written myself, had I thought of it first.

Hi all
I live far away from the city, and won't likely be able to leave poetry in anyone's pocket except that of my friends who read this.
One evening, I sat at a stop light, waiting for the light to turn green. Casually looking up to the sky, I was stunned by what I saw. Here is what that moment inspired.
