The two women act on their attraction for each other and begin filling nights and weekends with each other at the Riddle’s Double R Ranch.

In Belly Fires, even death can’t kill the flames of passion, Lieutenant Governor Charlene Ford loses everything in a deadly car crash and nothing feels the same. One minute, she is at the top of her game as the first African American lesbian lieutenant governor of New York State. The next minute, she is trying to keep a stiff upper lip as she watches the gravediggers bury the two walnut coffins containing her son JJ and her life partner, Regina. Her family is gone. Her world is gone. All she wants is to go away and disappear for a while; to just get lost until the pain in her heart stops. She sneaks away from her security escorts and borrows her chief of staff’s ancient jeep. She and Rusty, her loyal Akita, climb into the old jeep and head for parts unknown. As she crashes through the guardrail, she struggles to put on the brakes. The jeep’s brakes don’t work. Charlene stops fighting her fate as the car floats in mid-air for a long moment, then tumbles down the mountainside. The next time Charlene opens her eyes, the pain is tremendous. A handsome woman is standing over her with a […]

In the sensual whodunit novel, Second Chances, at love and murder, a woman regains consciousness from a fifteen-month coma. She has a second chance at life while her killer has a second chance to kill her. Will the woman’s assailant finally succeed in killing her before the cop, who reopens the cold case, can prevent the murder? Lieutenant Gwen Weston “meets” playgirl, Dr. Angela Bennett, when she investigates an attempted murder on the doctor’s life. Fifteen months before, a brutal assailant left Dr. Bennett to die on an isolated stretch of Harlem River Drive in New York City. The beating put her in a coma and Gwen was as surprised as everyone else that the woman could survive the extensive loss of blood and physical trauma. After her investigation reveals no suspects, Gwen closes the doctor’s case but maintains a monthly vigil at the coma clinic.

COMING OUT: LESBIAN AT 47

by B.L. in Most popular, Must read, Other, What the experts say, Worth a look 0 comments
I read this article from a worried parent years ago. I found the question interesting enough to write about. A woman, the mother says, “My 16-year-old son told me that he is gay. What should I do about it?” Today, I’d add my own experiences of informing my family that I was a lesbian. I wasn’t as young as that mother’s son was when he said, “Guess what Mom? I’m gay. Nope, that wasn’t me. I was 47-years old before I finally admitted to me that I was gay and then I admitted it to my family. You’re probably thinking isn’t 47 a little old to discover your orientation? Shouldn’t a person know before they reach 30 who or what they like? At 47, a person has lived over half her life in the shadows and maybe with the wrong gender as well. I understand your skepticism but permit me to explain my particular situation. I’m a Baby Boomer. When I grew up, young women were just beginning to flex their muscles. They were thinking about working in non-traditional jobs and considered living non-traditional lives. Most of the women I knew when I was a kid, wore traditional clothes to […]

I AM CHARLIE?

January 8, 2015 Too bad these young men couldn’t be taken alive and interviewed I want to know why they were killed and did they actually do what the media and police says they did. Nobody seems to want to examine the racism and the prejudice against Muslims. I keep hearing the BS on from white media who are acting like they don’t understand this. These guys probably aren’t terrorists any more than MLK or Malcolm were. They are young men of color who don’t feel a part of society…duh…sounds familiar, doesn’t it? The USA manages to send its racism around the world without even trying hard, doesn’t it? Did I mention what happened in Paris and what’s happening here BLACK LIVES MATTER and the willingness the police unions to stage a Blue Flu action, could be teachable moments about white privilege and Black lives don’t matter attitudes? I’m not creative enough to design something but I sure can see the links. Can you?

The 10 Worst Civil Liberties Violations of 2014

by B.L. in Most popular, Must read, Other 0 comments
Portside Date: December 30, 2014 Author: Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern Date of Source: Monday, December 29, 2014 Slate The world may not actually be falling apart [1]—but it feels like America is. From police brutality and botched executions to voter suppression and election corruption, 2014 was a terrible year for civil liberties in the United States. Protests were quelled by military-grade weapons in scenes worthy of a banana republic, and the divide between the rich and the poor in the freedom and justice they are afforded is Dickensian in its scope. While the country has evolved on marriage equality, it often appears to be backtracking on just about every other advance we have made, from the racial and gender progress of the 1960s to the most basic principles of the criminal justice system. Below, we’ve listed the top 10 civil liberties nightmares of 2014 in no particular order. Here’s hoping this list is harder to put together next year. Read the entire article here.

Grassroots Message Against Police Violence—and All Violence—Stands Firm

Portside Date: December 29, 2014 Author: Heidi Boghosian Date of Source: Friday, December 26, 2014 Common Dreams Just minutes after unfurling a 50-foot banner on the side of the A.J. Muste Building in Manhattan (also dubbed the “Peace Pentagon” for the nonviolent social change organizations it houses) a friend called to tell me that two police officers had been shot, execution style, in Brooklyn. I was composing a Tweet about the banner but deleted it mid-phrase. The banner reads: “NYC to Ferguson: End Police Violence,” and it was sponsored by the Campaign to Bring Mumia Home.
