Book Review: Angry Fat Girls


February 18th, 2010

My review of the book Angry Fat Girls: 5 Women, 500 Pounds, and a Year of Losing It … Again, by Frances Kuffel, is in the new issue of Bitch (Issue 46, “Old”). It should be on newsstands now, but, really, subscribing is key.

Yoko


December 30th, 2009

Here’s some positive feedback from the F Word on my Yoko Ono feature in the latest issue of Bitch. And a great post from Racialicious about it, too. I remember hearing a well-known writer talk about the time he worked at a national glossy and toiled over this investigative piece that went out into the world and then … nothing. Not a word of feedback. This, the opposite, is the gift.

“To bloom into full glory at 94 — whatever Carmen Herrera’s slow rise might say about the difficulties of being a woman artist, an immigrant artist, or an artist ahead of her time, it is clearly a story of personal strength.”

Oh Yoko!


November 18th, 2009

My feature story on Yoko Ono — “Oh Yoko!: 20 Ways of Looking at an Art-World Icon” — is in the new issue of Bitch magazine and also online here. (And a link to it from Yoko’s Twitter.)

Thank you to all the amazing women who took the time to talk with me about Yoko Ono.
