Jen Cross is a widely-published freelance writer, LGBT activist, performance artist, and facilitator of writing workshops.

Cross received her MA in Transformative Language Arts at Goddard College, where she studied and wrote about the ways in which erotic writing can be used as a tool for sexual- and self-healing.

Primarily, Jen Cross creates workshops and sacred spaces, facilitating healing, artistic endeavor, empowerment, and continual unfoldment for budding erotica writers, queer communities, cancer survivors, survivors of sexual abuse and trauma, those in recovery and dealing with PTSD, and aspiring artists.

In her own words:

“I’m also a survivor of sexual abuse, and believe strongly in the transformative power of writing — including erotic writing.”

Lesbian Relationships Podcast w/Jianda – Haus of Dewberries: Jacquelyn Kennedy is In the House!

Upcoming Show: 9/9/2010 2:00 PM PST (Please Check For Your Local Time Zone)

Dewberries Boutique and Lounge is hot! Everyone from Marquita Thomas, to SheWired, to Cherry Bomb, to Curve Magazine’s got the fever…and the only prescription? More shopping in this cute FWBY (for women, by women), lesbian-owned boutique, and it just keeps getting better.

Jacquelyn Kennedy, Owner and Developer of the Dewberries lifestyle brand, lounge, and boutique, is a one woman-show.

Still, Kennedy’s Dewberries queendom brings with it a sense of community: Kennedy’s supportive partner, uber-funny Latina Diva of Comedy Sandra Valls, generously shines the spotlight on Kennedy’s boutique-lounge, nonprofit activism, nurturing community parties and empowering workshops, and in-the-pocket coolness of the Dewberries brand. From all accounts, the Dewberries crew is unstoppable!

From Kennedy’s website, LuvThatDewBerries.com:

You need only a few moments in her presence to learn she’s a woman set on constant self discovery. A twisted blend of Radiance, Energy, Confidence and Sass, She’s an Intelligent Bombshell! Jacquelyn began her success diving into the pool of entrepreneurship.

Recognizing the beauty in fashion, cultural diversity, self affirmation and empowering all women has been at the forefront of Jacquelyn’s career.

Plus Size Clothing designer Yuliya Raquel’s darling San Francisco-based 12+ brand IGIGI launched its soft, poetic short film “Being You is Beautiful” last week on YouTube. The film is the second in a series of cinematic IGIGI shorts, called “16.”

In “Being You is Beautiful” one of IGIGI’s favorite models, the Brazilian bombshell Fluvia Lacerda is a living, breathing poem, fancying herself in her own reflection in black and white, nostalgic tones. The sensual short is directed by fashion photographer/director Mark De Paola whose previous credits include projects for Armani and DKNY.

“Let’s throw that heroin chic aesthetic out the window! Now, it’s all about heroines who are chic.”
