Persimmon Tree
- An Online Literary Magazine by Women Over 60 created by Sandra Butlera a fellow Hedgebrook alumna.

"Persimmon Tree showcases an impressive variety of literature and art by women over 60, many still working well into their 80s and 90s. Many of the writers and artists are well-known: Marilyn French, Ruth Stone, Grace Paley, E.M. Broner, Paula Gunn Allen, Jane Lazarre, Faith Ringgold, and Nicole Hollander. Others are lesser known, while some are newly developing their craft in their later years. All of them are at the height of their creative powers, and all of them express the shared, though diverse experiences of aging women, from late middle age to late old age.

“Persimmon Tree is intended to fill a niche that has been neglected by contemporary publishing, whether in print or online,” said Nan Gefen, the magazine’s founding editor and publisher. “There is a growing body of work by male writers and artists who are entering or well into old age. But the comparable body of work by aging women is much smaller and mostly limited to a few already well-known writers and artists,” Gefen explained. “Women are creating, but they are not getting the exposure they deserve.”

Persimmon Tree is published in association with Mills College in Oakland, CA."

Lucky Mojo
- Catherine Yronwode is the web goddess. She's a taurus just entering her sixth decade who's the same height as I am and way more adventurous.

I was skimming over her life history when I read that she owns the Lucky Mojo Curio Co., an occult shop. I love that online store! So I slowed down and started paying more attention. I entered the site at her bio and didn't pay attention to where I was. That was strange.

Some useful and unique features of Catherine Yronwode's web world are ... Catherine shares “a diagrammatic view into my own self-perceived outer, middle, and deep levels of being.” It's another possible direction for a random exercise in solipsism.

There's a page about freemasonry for women and a whole site about sacred sex.

How do I think Catherine Yronwode can be useful to others? This woman is seriously MultiPurpose. She wrote, “When i was 50, i performed a very serious love spell that led directly to my living in tantric partnership with ...” I think she might have a bit to tell us more reserved women about living and loving.

A Perfect Day in New York
- Helen Yanolatos is the author. She's a youngish New Yorker with a college degree and a surname to add to my “meaning of names” list.

Her goals are what caught my attention:
(1)To get a novel published or at least muster up the courage to submit a poem to Poetry Magazine
(2) Speak Spanish as well as I speak English
(3) learn to make vegan baklava
(4) learn to dance the Charleston correctly

It never occurred to me that baklava would be an issue for some people. And now that she mentions it I can see where it's full of stuff to stay away from. If anyone out there has or is up to some baklava experiments I'd love to hear about it and I'm sure Helen would too.

An interesting feature of A Perfect Day in New York Author Helen lists feminist artist Kiki Smith as one of her favorites along side Goya and Brueghel the Elder. I'd like to interview her about their similarities or whatever she appreciates about the three.

How do I think A Perfect Day in New York can be useful to others? Helen subtitled her bio “An exercise in solipsism”. I think it would be useful for all us curious women to follow her example and perform random exercises in solipsism.

... contact a stranger?
Just one of many fun surveys to see how mature women act in everyday situations.

Have you ever read something by or about a really interesting woman and then contacted her?
Yes, of course
Yes, with trepidation
No, what kind of person would contact a stranger
No,
Thought about it
