Dear subscribers,
I'm sorry for not updating this blog in such a long time. Going through homelessness and the systemic abuse that comes with it, was the first cause, then came a burnout and the ongoing struggle with the benefits/welfare /health system.
But this month I was finally able to take a step forward towards doing what I always was supposed to do - using my voice as an artist and activist in one (#artivism).
I've started out now as a poet, singer-songwriter, and storyteller on Instagram (@hercyniasilvapoetry) and I hope you will join me on my journey towards so many goals: collaborating with other artists, activists, and charities; reviving my podcast, self-publishing my poetry, becoming independent of the above named systems of oppression, supporting others in a similar plight, inspiring others to change and follow their hearts, and and and.
I would love to see your feedback, as well as chat on Threads, if you're there (haven't found enough like-minded people yet!).
I will keep this blog up, out of respect and pride of my old work, and as a resource for others. And who knows, I might feel like posting something here again at some point, and I'll post major updates as well.
And please feel always free to suggest any inspiring activists or artists to me, I'm always on the search.:)
Thank you for your interest in my work!
Laura
