Women and Words Sept 29 - Oct 5 Once again, Andi is off being a world traveller, something you'd think she'd give up since every time she goes on an adventure, she leaves me here to manage all this on my own. I, of course, recruited my friend (and she IS my friend regardless of what she might say to the contrary) Ashley Bartlett. She, of course, said yes. What follows is the result. You should all encourage Andi to stay home from now on.

Episode 41  This week, Andi chats with the owners of Fangirl Shirts, Rebecca Barrick and Sally Heaven, who “make awesome shirts by, for and about women.” They launched the company four years ago as a way to celebrate fangirls and fan culture through T-shirts and other swag, doing cool things like spelling out the word “fangirl” in the font of a particular show title and immortalizing lines from shows or the fandoms on shirts and swag.  Fangirl Shirts is also committed to community works, and a portion of profits go to non-profits that support girls and/or women. They also do special edition shirts that benefit a specific cause or organization (try the Queer Thunder and Peacemaker swaggery, for example) and they’re the organizers of the ClexaCon fun-run, an event they just launched at the second ClexaCon (the largest queer women and allies in media con) held in April, 2018. They’re already planning for the next, and they have all kinds of projects they’re working on, which makes Andi an even bigger fangirl of them.  Find Fangirl Shirts:  Website (BUY!)  Twitter -- @fangirlshirts  Instagram -- @fangirl_shirts  Pinterest -- @fangirlshirts 

Sheena Gets Interviewed Seize the Day Podcast Welcome to Seize the Day Podcast with Natalie Miller-Snell.   I’m super excited about this show.  One of the motivators for starting Seize the Day, was to get inspirational women on the show and talk through how they found success and what got them to the point they are at now.  In today’s show, I get to interview Sheena Lemos Ebersohn, founder of the The Lesbian Review and The Lesbian Talk Show.  We discuss Sheena’s journey and how the TLR and Talk Show came to be.  We talk websites, Requiem for Immortals and we learn a little about more about Sheena.   This was a really important podcast for me to do - finding the TLR changed my life, for the better.  I’ve met some wonderful friends through this great community, had so many great books recommended and I am here now, podcasting, which I would never have imagined.  Sheena has set up something truly wonderful with the TLR and Talk Show, and it’s really great to hear her take on it.   Seize the Day was inspired by my favourite Latin expression Carpe Diem.  I’m very much a “glass is half full” person and I’ve had some great mentors throughout my life, who have offered me invaluable guidance.  We have so many wonders at our fingertips and sometimes we just need a little help, or someone to remind us.   Books by Lee Winter referred to in the show Requiem for Immortals The Red Files   Contact Natalie Website:  www.seizethe-day.com Twitter: @natsnell Email:  nataliemillersnell@gmail.com Instagram: seizetheday_today   Sheena Online You can contact Sheena via email on Twitter on Facebook come join The Lesbian Review Book Club come join The Lesbian Talk Show Chat Group   Did you know that you get exclusive content when you become a patron?
