Hi friends,  I'm sending a beautiful follow up episode with Darcy Leigh (who was also on #105) and Harry Josephine Giles your way. These two dreams so generously shared about their lives, visions, creative practice and their trans healthcare fundraiser. It's been a joy of a conversation covering much ground and I hope that you'll love it as much as I did! Here is some of what we talked about:    Running Easter Road Press and self-publishing practices  Activist burn out, riding pandemic waves &amp; rebuilding queer lives  Funding trans health and dreaming radical care  Finding sources of power and magic    Harry Josephine Giles is from Orkney and lives in Leith. Her verse novel Deep Wheel Orcadia was published by Picador in October 2021. She has a PhD in Creative Writing from Stirling. Her show Drone debuted in the Made in Scotland Showcase at the 2019 Edinburgh Fringe and toured internationally. www.harryjosephine.com Darcy Leigh lives half in Edinburgh, half in Brighton (it's complicated). She is very Jewish, very butch, and deep in DIY culture as well as queer history. Darcy also works as a university lecturer where she researches British colonialism and tries to make universities more accessible while also burning them down. https://butcharchive.com/ Fundraiser: https://www.gofundme.com/f/butchfemmebodyhack More info about the starter website I'm offering for the fundraiser auction: https://pinkwellstudio.com/webdesign/  //If you enjoy listening and would like some support for your practice please consider joining my Patreon. In the Practice // Space community you’ll get access to recorded workshops, ritual guides, journaling prompts and movement &amp; creative practices to explore in your own time. I also host monthly intention setting sessions and quiet co-creating sessions on Zoom around each new moon. Join here: https://www.yarrowmagdalena.com/practice/ Thank you!//

#141 Dreaming butch/femme joy & trans health care with Harry Josephine Giles & Darcy Leigh

Hey everyone, I'm excited to send this conversation with Darcy Leigh your way! I love Darcy's zines and I hope that all the imaginary permissions slips we've handed out to ourselves in this episode will make you feel excited to DIY more things too. Here is what we talked about:    How Darcy co-founded a press and why stamps are permission giving magic  How the butch archive came to be  What it's like to write and share very personal stuff  Creating our own creative processes to survive academia    Darcy Leigh co-runs @easterroadpress, an insurrectionary transfeminist press based in Scotland. She is into DIY everything, from her zines about butch bodies, to her DIY archiving and curation at butcharchive.com. Themes from her work include fatness, transness, tits, ambivalence, Jewishness and psychiatry. She lives half in Edinburgh, half in Brighton (it’s complicated), and appreciates pigeons, innovative zine folds and dark truths. When not in queer zine land, Darcy works in the ivory tower and is also committed to its destruction (aka, is a Lecturer in Law who researches the ongoing history of the British Empire). This is the Easter Road Press Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/EasterRoadZines Easter Road Press on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/easterroadpress/ Glasgow Zine Fest on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glasgowzinelib/  //If you enjoy listening and would like some support for your practice please consider joining my Patreon.
