When Rachel Sang the Blues
The first time I saw Rachel she was singing the blues, she was outgrowling Eartha Kitt, she was crooning full mouthed blue dirt and funk, a caterwaul strain like a siren. The first time I saw Rachel she sang a case hardened lullaby, she was threading the silvery eye of a needle. She was shooting […]
Candace Walsh and ‘Licking the Spoon’
Want to play show and tell? I do. But I’m going to tell first and show second. My new book, Licking the Spoon: A Memoir of Food, Family, and Identity, is being released by Seal Press this week. The story follows me from my wacky childhood to the current day, with the major beats in […]
Got Boos?!
Halloween has been and always will be my favorite holiday. Am I alone in this? Sure hope not. As a lesbian I note how many people love to somehow turn Halloween into some weird thing about how and why LGBT individuals enjoy it so. How about it’s just fun as hell?! Wait, could it be…why […]
My Left Breast – I think I’ll Keep It
October is breast cancer awareness month. I do not need a month to make me aware of breast cancer. I do not need a Susan Komen walk or an Avon walk to remind me of breast cancer. I do not need a pink ribbon either. I need only look at my left breast- the scar […]
ART TO GO!
One of the best things about being a painter is being able to invite friends in the Bay Area to join me in my studio every year for Open Studios. I have the amazing good luck to be an artist in the most beautiful city in the world that is home to thousands of us […]
Lisa Cordileone and ‘Easy Abby’ the Web Series
After considering moving to New York and maybe a fleeting thought to LA after college, I moved instead to Chicago and had every intention of working in the theatre scene. I spent my first 3 years here auditioning for every theatre or show I wanted to be a part of and training with Second City. […]
LIPS – Chicks with Licks
Hello Epochalips fans! Lovely to meet you! My name is Flo Vinger and I’m a filmmaker/performer and created a new series called LIPS. I wanted to do a gay women’s show that is fun, sexy and hilarious. I added the singing and dance numbers because it adds a lot of comedy and fun to the […]
FAT – The Other F-Word
Collectively, we get angry about hate speech particularly that which is specific to color, gender or sexual orientation, etc. We even confront those who do it. Although they are just words, it’s the intent we take issue with…rightly so. We know words are used as weapons. In our LGBT world using words like “dyke†or […]
Don’t Call Me Butch!
Hi my name is Terri… not BUTCH!!! I know this because the birth certificate that my parents received when I was born indicates this. All my teachers from grade school through high school called me Terri. My drivers license and military identification all indicate I am Terri. So when I hear “Butch” being yelled at […]
She Was Always My Sister
For Mary Helen Lynch (12.1.47-1.27.2011) “Real art has the capacity to make us nervous.”–Susan Sontag Inspired by Robin Lowey’s moving essay about the late great Lynnly Labovitz, together with Vicki Randle’s piece about so charming and alarming a “warrior woman” as Lynnly clearly was, I determined to honor Mary and bear witness to her most […]
