		<description>It&#039;s so great to be single.  And strong enough to keep trying..I&#039;ve been singing Natural Woman for 12 years!  It&#039;s taken such a long time to even get to this place.</description>

		<description>probably many families have communication difficulties..but I&#039;m happy for you that your family, at least part of it, accepts you. That&#039;s really something. Keep it up! Greetings, Sina</description>

		<description>Ack, I know I didn&#039;t answer your question..you have to get a pretty package of your press stuff, some samples of your work on DVD and some photos as well as the topics that you would be able to present on and the duration.  Make sure to get a contract because stuff gets cancelled and artists don&#039;t get paid often cuz they aren&#039;t good with the business end of it.  There are magazines of college campus booking contacts somewhere, but i haven&#039;t gotten mine yet..</description>

		<description>Hey mariko! I was reading yoru blog and thought it was cool that your doing speaking gigs at schools and such. have u ever thought about doing outreach work(paid) like with a youth organization or LGBT organizations? That seems like something that would be up your ally in terms of experience and interests. As a performer and such can I ask you how you go about obtaining/submitting for gigs/engagements at schools etc? Everyone seems to do this stuff but it seems weird nontheless. I recently moved to NYC and don&#039;t know how people do sex work full time. I got so burned out and annoyed dealing with folk in the bay area that now that Im here Im completely over it-sigh.ANA-http://ohhoneychild.typepad.com/</description>

		<description>i appreciate and identify with this post A LOT A LOT. yes on the fucked up service model non profits (that woman telling u about sex workers cuz she&#039;s empowered to work with them, but ur not empowered to organize a community that ur part of, although priviliged in some ways---ur analysis is rly deep, layered, but totally easy for me to understand because it reflects my experiences. 

ppl need to not say shit about other people&#039;s foods.

p.s. i hate the free chat assholes, i was on a webcam site (i would mention it but they might sue my ass) but i stopped doing it cuz of trifling hackers and men cancelling the charge &gt;:0</description>
