Listen While You Internet

 


That's me reading the opening paragraph of my book, You Are Among Friends: Advice for the Little Sisters I Never Had.

Or, first, try the podcast (below) for free, and see if you're into it!

THE PODCAST

You Are Among Friends is a project that encourages and empowers girls of all ages. It began as a paper zine, then took the form of a free audio podcast, and (in extended form) is now in the shiny, tangible form of a beautiful little book.

Right-click the photo above to download the podcast, which is still free for listening and distribution.

Seems like a good Sunday to watch some unbeweavable Bjork videos.


Wanderlust
I am leaving this harbor,
giving urban a farewell.
Its habitants seem too keen on God
I cannot stomach their rights and wrong.
I have lost my origin,
And I don't want to find it again
Rather sailing into nature's laws
And be held by ocean's paws

 


 

It's Oh So Quiet
the sky caves in
the devil cuts loose
you blow blow blow blow blow your fuse
when you've fallen in love



Declare Independence
Start your own currency
Make your own stamp
Protect your language


All is Full of Love
You'll be given love
You'll be taken care of
You'll be given love
You have to trust it


Hyperballad
I go through all this
Before you wake up
So I can feel happier
To be safe up here with you

 


Pagan Poetry (NSFW, unless your work allows boobs)
This time
I'm gonna keep it to myself
This time
I'm gonna keep me all to myself
And he makes me want to hand myself over
 

I love this one especially, because of 2:46 on. So genuine and sad and lovely.

I was promised Bjork but there are no videos of Izzy here. I don't understand.

My boyfriend met the dancer who is on Bjork's back in "Wanderlust" at a show in Brooklyn! (Random fun fact)
