LIVE BLOGGING from...the BEACH

Traveling around so much is draining all my energy, forgive the lack of insight and sporadic postings that is to come this week.

48 hours after the AMC conference in Detroit, I loaded up a University car and took off for St. Charles, Illinois for the NWSA conference. Saturday, I flew to Norfolk, VA to meet family for a Virginia Beach vacation and then I will be flying to Boston for two job interviews then I will fly home.

There is so much that I need to write about, reflect further on the AMC and NWSA conferences, but time is getting away from me and the more time passes, the more I fear I won't be able to hold onto my reactions.

So, I am recording as much as I can: my thoughts on WOC feminism, where I believe it is headed, meeting and talking deeply with both Jessica Valenti and Daisy Hernandez at the NWSA conference and the pearls that have surfaced from those interactions. Ah, there's so much. I will do my best to get things posted as soon as possible, but just know there will be some heavy journaling posts coming up in the next few weeks with moving, transition, and, once again, saying good-bye to another chapter of my life as I move onto a new location, job, and environment.

Bittersweet days ahead.
