WOMEN RAISE OUR VOICES: Fall 2024—Sparks!
Aloha and Welcome to the Fall Issue of Women Raise Our Voices. The theme for the Fall Issue 2024 is SPARKS. We had many wonderful submissions from which to choose. We hope you’ll take time from a busy schedule to read and comment on the work of the talented women featured here.
Women Raise Their Voices
History is replete with myths and historical events detailing both the honoring and persecution of women and girls. There is a collective women’s wisdom that has been fought for and won by women who’ve taken a stand, using their bodies as well as their pens to raise their voices against injustices. As a result of their bravery and sacrifices, we women of today enjoy many rights that our mothers & grandmothers didn’t have. As writers, we choose to carry on this tradition of speaking out and RAISING OUR VOICES.

When I look back, both 2020 and 2021 are a bit hazy and memories are fuzzy around the edges like pastel chalks rubbed and blended together. I admit that I really don’t understand how it’s even possible that we’re now in the year 2022!

Rocking Chair Blues: Writing & Travel
There is a magical place called Hana, Maui, beautiful, remote and where the Hawaiian culture is still alive and well. The writing retreat I offer every year in Taos, NM, will now be happening in Hawaii. A retreat center in Hana that caught my eye as being perfect for a writing retreat is called Ala Kukui, meaning Path of Enlightenment.
