Last night I was part of a grand event: Holly Gomez Presents Jezebel's Riot. It was a group of Bakersfield Women Singer/Songwriters... and one Poet.. namely me. I served sort of as an Emcee and a bridge between the musicians.
I loved it on many levels: appearing with women I have worked with in the past in Burn the Witch Shows, VDay Shows, La Femme - and now, here. All women oriented programs which makes me think: we need to do some sort of event including men... perhaps that is a what's next?
I wanted to share a photo and a couple videos as my Art Every Day check in today. I was wishing the entire "Snail's Agreement" poem was recorded but alas, it will be next time. Here is a link to the poem.
And here is the video of Turn (with me talking too much before I read) and a link to the poem... which is a baby... only a week old.
Oh - yesterday I also wrote another poem for the #GirlEffect movement. You may read it on my poetry site and I have a gift of an Mp3 of me reading it as well. If you would like to scoop that up, please do so at JulieJordanScott.com.
This morning kicked off well creatively. I was supposed to attend a Women's Studies program at Huntington Library but my dear (new) friend, Beth, is ill so we will go another time, instead. Now, I am using the gift of this extra time to catch up creatively and perhaps - do things like work on my poetry chairs today... I have written one poem so far and edited some photos so all in all, a great day so far.
What are you excited to create today?
