I've always wanted to write a bildungsroman, but I've never had the courage to begin. There are so many I've read and loved that are so good, and that makes me scared to try.

Your group is really beginning to look enticing - but it's a bit too far for me...And history and philosophy? Great! I'd even promise to keep my trap shut and only say something when asked, LOL...

Re: Pat dear.
Kabu, I could not have said it better! I am proud to have a fully human woman such as yourself as my friend, and you must know that you are a treasure! We are not the only people who recognize the president-elect and the forces behind him as virulent, divisive and harmful to freedom and justice in this world. We must not give up. Too much is at stake.

Pat dear.
I have to write this somewhere to someone so if you like read it and remove. Here goes.
I am sick to death of what I read about the Obama family....Like some one saying that it will be great to have a real lady in the white house instead of an Ape in heels. Then not a word about naked full frontals of the President elects soon to be first lady. I have found Michelle Obama to be a true American, elegant, educated, wonderful Mother and family person yet remaining a woman in her own right, not some trophy Bimbo; actually she is everything that anyone could be proud to call their first lady.
I am sick of reading where some men don't think that touching or grabbing female genitals is wrong and that women should not have say over their bodies. I am truly sick of this white is Right movement. it is not just an advocate for white supremacy but for white male supremacy. I am starting to feel real shame that I am white and that isn't fair to me either. I don't want to be put into a box any box. I want to love not hate.

You have done a great job therapeutic in design. A worry shared is a worry halved and I should not think many of your friends had ever spoken about much about their own lives.I am sure it made them feel more important. Some are always a bit of a pain but the bad apple does not have to spoil the barrel as they say.

I like the idea of two writing groups. That could help by splitting up those with the different needs.
