Second little post on #substack It’s been nice to write like this. Near zero audience but still nice! 🙃 less #socialmedia feel.

No idea what I’m doing but doing it anyway! Fragments of a story in the making #writing Might be a book one day. For now it’s a #creativeprocess, a discovery, a little torment, and a lot of joy. #thewomaninthefilm #fiction

“My silences had not protected me. Your silence will not protect you…” Audre Lorde
A recent contemplation on the feeling of safety in silence…how it becomes a form of self-erasure—an invisibility. #audhd #unmasking #writing

I visited Rwanda years ago and failed to share the stories. I had no words. It feels good to be published, and good to share a story now of something in me from that visit. Sadly, it felt relevant to write in the quietness of a world watching bombs explode in another genocide… #stories #writing

Analogue desk. 🎶🤍 yes!
James Watt of Brewdog told me on my podcast how he has 2 desks - one digital & one analogue. The former is for emails, texts & getting stuff done. The latter is device free and is for free, undisturbed creative thought. I love this idea! Here's my analogue desk. What's on yours?

“Can the hungry go on a hunger strike? Non-violence is a piece of theatre. You need an audience. What can you do when you have no audience? People have the right to resist annihilation." Arundhati Roy.

Recent portraits. Sessions are very personal experiences. Stories held inside are often shared, sometimes with words, often not. 🤍

A meaningful conversation on womanhood was my day. We laughed, cried, raged...
The day, and the marches where I am, are painted purple #cdmx
