Bywords Warmed the Night

We had a great turnout yesterday at Swizzles Bar for the annual fundraiser, Bywords Warms the Night, which was generously hosted by Dusty Owl. It was a pleasure and an honour to perform alongside fellow members of the Bywords Selection Committee. I performed three of my feminist works: Whipped Dreamy, Believing Eden and Hymen Reconstructive Surgery, the latter of which had never been performed, and I was delighted at the enthusiastic response it received. We rasied $420 for Cornerstone Women's Shelter, which burned down earlier this winter. Thank you again to those who supported me and contributed to the fundraiser.
