The themes - mourning yr childhood, general existential yearning, facing/fleeing adulthood through escapism, fairy tales and fantasy - are ones I totally dig, especially this year. So many end-of-an-era changes afoot, so many emotional rites of passage to traverse! I know this is all rather cryptic; Hold tight for a blog or two sometime in the near future.<br />

Another one of my queer rites of passage chronicled in <a href="https://www.facebook.com/moremag" target="_blank">more!</a> magazine this week. <a href="http://www.sh-womenstore.com/" target="_blank">Sh!</a> get a mention, which should give you a reasonably good indication of what to expect.<br />
<br />
This marks my penultimate column for the mag. Stoked that I managed to intrigue the more! readership enough to warrant 3 extra weeks (making good on the originally planned 6 week run), and am pleased to say that we've decided to wrap things up with a readers' questions answered-style piece the week after next. Got a query for yr gal? <a href="https://www.facebook.com/moremag/posts/10151333247419337" target="_blank">Lookseehere</a> for details on how to take part.<br />

Part 7 of my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/moremag" target="_blank">more! magazine</a> column is out! You'll find T Swizzle on the front cover, and my pale self in leopard print tights, red lipstick and snazzy gold shoes on page 52. This one is super personal, since its all about loving someone who isn't totally out, and the pains of navigating queer love/coupledom under the black cloud of religious, homophobic family/in-laws.Compacting all those important life experiences into 500 word articles can be a challenge, but I was glad of the word count boundary when I wrote this piece; Its a delicate dance, committing yr intimate life trials to print, and more so when those experiences are weaved in with yr nearest and dearest's. I had to meditate a fair bit on how much I was willing to share with this
column, and in the end I decided that including the messy, sad, challenging truths was important. I'm proud of what I/we have managed to forge out of those things.<br />

I reviewed Veronica Falls' new record, Waiting For Something To Happen, for the Feb issue of <a href="http://www.qthemusic.com/" target="_blank">Q</a> (out now). I expect it'll be one of spring/summer 2013's most beloved indie soundtracks, which'll take on a sweet transformation for me since I rinsed it lovingly to death back in bitter, wintery November, a month that didn't quite suit some of the sunburst, coming-of-age guitar magic that's at work on the record. Tell Me, the opening track, is especially lovely, and filled with the kind of inquisitive, wide-eyed desire/hunger for experience and adventure that growingpainspop sounds like when its at its giddy, aching best.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="font-family: inherit;">This is a fanzine about the queer haunts of our youth. It’s a love letter to the lost heart of queer London, one that’s been obliterated by Cross Rail expansion, ConDem-led recession and the exodus of queer culture from central to east London. This is a map of the places were we fell in love, the clubs in which we found community, friends and home. This is for all the places that existed before Facebook was a thing, before the smoking ban came into force, for beloved dives in and around Soho, Tottenham Court Road and Leicester Square, a paean to once-thriving queer venues that are no more.</i><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I've written an article on queer women who are/do poly and what monogamous types can learn from them, which can be found in the current (January) issue of </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/divamagazine/info" target="_blank">DIVA Magazine</a>. Its <span style="font-family: inherit;">out now and features mega babe Ana Matronic on la cover. Word of the day: <a href="http://jay-wiseman.livejournal.com/592.html" target="_blank">frubbliness</a>!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">I've been taking stock, as crits/writers/the world is wont to do at this time of year, and am feeling mighty proud of the pieces I've written for the magazine over the past 12 months. I'm particularly grateful to be working for/with an editor so </span></span><span style="line-height: 18px;">consistently </span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">committed to covering talented queer women and exploring issues that matter to our communities, both within the mainstream and outside of it. </span></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">My features for DIVA in Twenty Twelve have included interviews with THEEsatisfaction, Staceyanne Chin, Beth Ditto and Hannah Blilie of Gossip, Stooshe, Peaches, Grace Petrie, Skunk Anansie's Skin and Nona Hendryx, along with investigative/reportive pieces on </span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18px;">lezsploitation and in/visibility in UK TV, the rise of UK based lesbian activism (in response to the ConDem coalition and austerity measures), the achievements of queer women on the UK zine scene, the new anti-squatting laws and the aforementioned poly article. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18px;">I'm biased, obvs, but I think DIVA does a spectacular job of representing queer women. Not yet a <a href="http://www.divamag.co.uk/subscriptions/digital.aspx" target="_blank">subscriber</a>?

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I interviewed Corin Tucker during the lead up to the 2012 US presidential election. W<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;">e talked politics, feminism, motherhood, </span></span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;">zines and </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 18px;">the benefits of being an older musician. I also asked her if its true that the person on the front cover of All Hands On The Bad One is in fact her, and that the picture was taken while she was being carried out of a gig after picking a drunken fight with a bouncer and passing out, because I read this somewhere aaaages ago and have always hoped it was true. </span><br />

My latest column for <a href="https://www.facebook.com/moremag" target="_blank">more!</a> magazine is out now, on the shelves of yr nearest reputable newsagents and featuring K-Stew's smug mug on the front cover. This week: finding your tribe, rites of passage (goodbye tresses, hello generic lesbian haircut) and the joys of gay clubbing.<br />
<br />
Writing this column has been an interesting exercise so far. I've been out for 8/9 years, and the experiences of those years has allowed me to write (relatively) freely about the pleasures and trials of being queer with (relatively) little qualms about who will be reading them. As I celebrate my queer coming-of-age in this column, writing gaily about strap-ons and losing my lez v-card, I'm very aware, on a personal level, that others do not enjoy the same freedoms. I guess the coming-out story might sometimes feel like a hackneyed narrative for seasoned queers. Some of us would rather be busy getting on with the important stuff then picking over a process that should, in a decent world, be as incidental as puberty. If, like me, you came out years ago, facing only mild, curious surprise and fond acknowledgement from yr loved ones, its easy to forget how terrifying this ordeal this can be for those of us who don't have the acceptance of our families, those of us who labour under an impossibly conditional kind of love. I'm thinking a lot about <a href="http://ok4rj.org/2011/04/i-choo-choo-choose-you-chosen-families-and-radical-activism/" target="_blank">chosen families</a> this week, and the beautiful, brave strength of queers who have had to adapt and transform our collective idea of 'family' in order to ensure loving, supportive structures are there to embrace us when the old, traditional ones fail. How inventive and wonderful we are.<br />

I reviewed x4 albums for the <a href="http://www.qthemusic.com/" target="_blank">Decemember edition of Q</a> - James Iha's Look To The Sky, Matthew Friedberger's Matricidal Sons of Bitches, Chelsea Wolfe's Unknown Rooms and Rolo Tomassi's Astraea. I wrote these reviews up in early September, around the time I'd been spring(winter) cleaning my casette collection and, coindentally, came across Iha's solo debut, a 20p Oxfam find I'd picked up moons ago. <br />

Peep this week's issue of <a href="http://www.moremagazine.co.uk/" target="_blank">More! magazine</a> to catch the first instalment of my big, gay column on coming out. Feels sweet to be writing for a magazine I perused during my pre-babydyke years; I'd leaf through a bunch of 'zines each week in the local newsagents while munching on penny sweets, but More! was one of my preferred reads during those mid/late teen years, mostly because they could be relied upon for the kind of kinky problem-page letters that didn't make it into the more prudish teengirl publications. Also, they boasted the much-loved Position of the Week feature, which I'm very glad to say is STILL RUNNING! Seasoned queers, this is lighter fare than my DIVA stuff, and aimed at the young bi-curious/not-yet-out types (yay that I can be a part of helping heterocentric teen media cater for this demographic!) but worth a peep for some racy moments and ritesofpassage giggles.

In between guillotine sessions with the stacks of pink QZFL flyers I've been printing on our creaking HP Photosmart, <a href="http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/features/zine-and-done-it-8300830.html" target="_blank">I chatted to The Indy about why zine culture rules</a>. Less than a month to go before we take over Space Station Sixty-Five! If yr attending the festivities, let it be known <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/232251613569656/" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

Trying to write through fluey brain fog is never the one. Still, yay for regional hippyhop types who're questioning what Britishness means in an age of riots, Coalition-led cuts and deepening class divides. Grau axed the '77 Joan Baez rap video I linked-up in the piece, so I've produced it here, for yr pleasure. <br />
