My masterpiece, complete, twice edited and printed out in pristine black and white, is taken up with reverence from the printer. I’ll scan once more to check that all is right, then send it off. Oops, there’s a missing s, conspicuous by its absence. What a pain! Where’s the red pen? Perhaps that longish sentence […]… Continue reading Read Poem: Study in Red, by Cathy Cade — POETRY FESTIVAL.

Have you ever gone walking on the beach? Shoes slipped off, sand covering your feet Just you walking, on a big empty space. The wind blowing in your face.

http://www.shemademewrite.com Things are different now, roles are reversing Smiling to conceal the frown, accrued pains without healing So many fragile egos We’re walking on eggshells of emotions We’re too quick to pass judgements now and condemn Each party think they’re so righteous and clean We can persist to no good end But really, nobody wins […]… Continue reading Read Poem: Read Poem: Nobody Wins, by Imina F.

This film has been rightfully […]… Continue reading The Use of Colour in ‘Portrait of a Lady on Fire’ — Screen Queens
WIHM – All Hail The Proactive, Progressive, and Pro-Sex Generation of Female Horror Protagonists — Screen Queens

The Witch (2015) is remarkable for a number of reasons. But that ending, which sees the […]… Continue reading WIHM – All Hail The Proactive, Progressive, and Pro-Sex Generation of Female Horror Protagonists — Screen Queens
