An Homage to my Soul Mate – And how it Created The Longest Kiss in Cinema History! Making film is like falling in love. The first burst of excitement and enthusiasm, the sweeping epic bubble you live in while you plan your lives (script), all that great sex in the beginning is like the shoot […]
I first noticed the queerness in Jane as Harrison Ford’s best friend in The Fugitive. She has always had a self-possessed manner that says “dyke†to me but really just means she’s a strong woman with a wicked sense of humor and a deadpan delivery. Ten years ago she burst into mainstream popularity in her […]
Last summer I drove down to Southern California from the Bay Area to take part in a beach party event and promote Epochalips. I grabbed my surfboard, picked up Monica Palacios in Venice beach and headed down the coast. Apparently, there was a last minute change in location and a mix up in communication. We […]
Meredith Baxter is an amazing woman. I met her about a year ago on the Sweet Cruise where she and girlfriend Nancy Locke came out publicly as a couple and then returned home to come out to the world at large. I knew she was planning on coming out soon, but when she came home […]
I went into my son’s freshman high school class last week as a member of the Spectrum’s LGBT Speaker’s Bureau to help dispel myths about LGBT people and to educate them about the consequences of teen bullying by sharing my story. It was 8:00 am and the kids just stared blankly, with their mouths agape. […]
Why do Gays and Lesbians love Halloween so? Celebrating Halloween was a longstanding tradition in my family growing up in Northern California. As a child I was allowed to run free—dressed as a monster or in some sort of boy-themed costume. Candy was like money for us, a commodity that involved trading and counting. The […]
National Coming Out Day is over this year, but homophobia is still ongoing. This week a 13-year-old kid hung himself in the schoolyard at the same middle school that I attended. I remember my days in 8th grade there and how I desperately tried to pretend that I was NOT achingly in love with my […]
I was the most unlikely woman to bear a child that I’ve ever heard of.When I grew up in the 60’s as a rough-and-tumble tomboy, I used to fantasize that I still had a choice as to whether I would grow up to be male or female. I was sure that if I ended up […]
Actually, not really, but the Spam I’ve been receiving lately at Epochalips might suggest otherwise. Epochalips is kicking ass out there, none-the-less. We’ve grown by leaps and bounds in the past 2 months, since we launched at SF Pride in June. Thanks for all your support and stay tuned for our LAUNCH PARTY in a […]
Ahhh….Sharon Gless, my HERO! Sharon is nominated for an Emmy award for her role as Michaels’ fiery tempered mother Madeline on USA’s Burn Notice. I have been IN LOVE with Sharon since the Cagney and Lacey days. I was sure she was a dyke and a real alcoholic in recovery (just like Christine Cagney), so […]
Hang on, it's going to be a wild ride!
