On a different note...
I started running again. I started running on January 17th, and I haven't missed a day since. I've run 9 days in a row. The first five days I ran in averages of twenty minute chunks interspersed with 5-10 minute walks. The 6th & 7th days I mostly walked, with brief running jaunts. And then--insert triumphant trumpet--on the 8th & 9th days, I ran 45 minutes solid. I'm so happy about this. I'm feeling back in my groove and know I'm getting back into shape--physically, mentally, creatively. I can feel the core of myself, beneath the excessive layers of clothing and flesh, singing, thanks for remembering me...
So, here I am.
I'm writing again and I'm running again. My two daily disciplines. My maintenance of voice and breath.

Embodying Vulnerable Resistance as a Strategy of Hope
Greetings...
- Diana Tigerlily
- I'm a feminist poet and performance artist. I'm a midwife of words and dreams. My intentions are to raise awareness and offer hope for a better world. I embrace a transnational, ecofeminist performance poetics that includes my full-length one-person show, Depleting Patriarchy, addressing the global impacts of depleted uranium on human bodies and earth bodies. My dissertation is a feminist autoethnography of possibility that puts on display stories of homeplace to reveal vulnerable resistance as a transformative strategy towards global justice. My poetry has been published in We’Moon: Gaia Rhythms for Womyn; Art of Survival: Women, Healing, and the Arts; and Radio-Free Boskydell: a Literary Magazine for Southern Illinois. I hold a Ph.D. in Performance Studies from Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Department of Communication Studies; a Graduate Certificate in Women's Studies; and a Master of Arts degree in English.
