So, today I did a photoshoot for the Ottawa Storytellers. I'm going to be the poster-girl for The Ottawa Storytelling Festival (coming, this November, to a venue near you! If you're in Ottawa, that is. Everyone else will just have to grab a bus or something).
I'm very excited about this. And they seem to be excited about this, too, so YAY! :-D
Tomorrow is Grant Writing Day (hoy). Wish me luck! :-D
In other news, I'm not at the EGALE meet-and-greet for local Rainbow-Related orgs and The Trans Community(s). Which slightly pisses me off (inside Ottawa, there's not a lot of need for a group like Rainbow Health Ontario because there are a tonne of in-city groups who do this stuff already -- consequently, no-one knows we're around. :-P).
However. My (beautiful) spy is there, by invitation, as a member of POWER and a sexworkers' rights activist, and she's brought a bunch of RHO cards (with my RHO email on them) with her, to hand around to people on my behalf, while she's there. (I love having a Minion! :-D)
My plan is to write to EGALE and suggest that they have similar meetings in the more rural parts of my LHIN, as there are queer and trans communities in those areas who don't have easy access to the kinds of services (such as they are) that are available in Ottawa.
In further news: We have a Kobo. We also have a free (thanks, Yuki_Onna) copy of Fairyland in PDF format. I would like to transfer the PDF to the Kobo. I have no idea how to do that.
Anyone know?
Thanks,
Amazon.
