Well, d gray, I wasn't necessarily singling you out. I just meant anyone bashing on the Cy Twombly art fetching a lot of money. I don't see anything wrong with it.

It's too bad that some of you guys find Cy Twombly's art "shit." So other artists that get millions of dollars are more "deserving" because of the work? It's almost never about the work (it's about the name), and because different strokes for different folks. The sales price does not determine...

Someone can feel both loss and gain. It's normal to feel both. It doesn't mean it's being against something to feel some loss, it's just an emotion and it's okay to embrace feelings as they come up, and talk about them. We can celebrate and also have our feelings of loss...this is all complex...

Well, I'm not either. I was just going by what she keeps telling me--that she's the same person. Despite the fact that I too am trans (non-binary), I can't speak for others. I can only experience this life I'm living with Hannah.

"Michael," "mjp" ...I'd love to address what Roni has said about it being kind of a sad loss, but I honestly can't because I still can't figure out why it feels that way myself. Hannah is the same person. I think it has to be some kind of society-stereotypical brainwash we have/I have. I think...

I learned a lot about the tribes that attribute shamanic qualities to those that have mixed-gender identities. Black Swan hit it when she says the youngsters are only reinventing the wheel. If anyone is magical it would be you, my love. ?

Thanks guys. Yes it's lively now. I just want to keep it that way. Roni, I am so sorry you can't keep up. I love all your posts so far!

We still need more members though. I'm not sure where to get them from. I no longer have Facebook because I hated it there, but that was 2000 people I could have promoted to. Oh well. What can't ya do?

Hi all! I just set up a new forum for artists (with mjp's help, of course) and need new members. Please come register and participate! We need you. CreativeSpark.art

Thanks for the info. What I meant in reference to reading costs are really submission fees. I use Submittible (submittable.com) for the most part, which can be searched by genre (sort of), or deadline. You can also order the listings by "no fee." It mostly works well as a place to store your...

Hey, that's pretty cool. :) Thanks for the pics.

That's interesting that you say that. I did not know what a novelette was, but I have a piece that is about 25,000 words and can't for the life of me figure out how to lengthen it just to make it a novel, which was why I went back to working on the short stories. I thought about bundling it with...

I started reading him at around 14 and read Ham on Rye, then all his novels and short stories. The first poetry book I then read was Love is a Dog From Hell when I was about 17 or 18.

I'm just saying it's a wild concept to me because I have always been put down for thinking (knowing) he was a genius. It might have been different in the states. He always seemed to have been well received in Germany. I am not an expert on him as most of you are. I just love his work and he's...
