Oh hey, NBD, just on the Persistence Tumblr with my super hot friend Loree! persistenceanthology: Loree and Smith sent us this great shot of them reading Persistence on the ramp in front of their house in Toronto. (Please note that Loree’s lipstick and shoelaces match the book cover. Love it!) Loree describes herself as a poly queer femmegimp porn star academic doing a PhD at York University. Her work is a synthesis of theoretical engagement and critical artistic creation, both of which are motivated and shaped by personal experience and activist ideals. Loree says she wants to replace the gawking, gazing, and glaring people with disabilities encounter on a daily basis with beholding, recognizing, and reacting when people with disabilities are red fucking hot. Smith is a fat trans genderqueer foodie nerd who maintains a photo blog about queers eating (check it out! www.queerfathungry.tumblr.com). To our great delight, Smith just moved back to the West Coast, which means we get to eat together on a regular basis. (The first time Zena ate food with Smith was at a post-femme conference dinner at a BBQ joint in Oakland. Serious nomming occurred. We also made up a seductive voice for Bevin’s mac ‘n cheese, but that’s another story.) We love you guys! Please keep the photos coming. You can send ‘em to persistence.anthology@gmail.com Zena and Ivan xo
