Furious Vaginas: Naked Truth
http://www.furiousvaginas.com/2015/08/naked-truth.html
A discipline by Krissy Kneen. Saturday, August 1, 2015. I didn't. I have spent the year promoting two books and dieting fell by the wayside. The people who come to see me will see me as I am, unfit but healthy, pasty-white, gone to seed, fleshful. First time I’ve read a blog, first time I’ve posted a response. I feel the tingle of excitement of newness. There may be rules. Fortunately, I don’t know them. I can make them up. I hope good luck, great courage and much kindness are with you on the day. Thanks...

Furious Vaginas: May 2015
http://www.furiousvaginas.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
A discipline by Krissy Kneen. Tuesday, May 5, 2015. On radio last night I was asked if there was a stigma about writing erotic fiction. I gave an answer but I am very uncomfortable about it and need to think this through. My answer was yes. I said that there is a term that is used; women's erotica. I don't use the term because it is often used to single out more escapist works and books that focus on romantic eros. I am not really that interested in romance. I like my sex separated from romantic ...Affec...

Furious Vaginas: August 2014
http://www.furiousvaginas.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
A discipline by Krissy Kneen. Friday, August 29, 2014. Winning a prize. A speech. Ok so tonight I won the Thomas Shapcott Poetry Award. Very crazy. So happy. I was going to read this speech but I didn't. It is here instead. I said most of the bits anyway. This is the first award I have ever won for my writing. It is such a surprise. Such a wonderful surprise. When I was done I had something on paper, but I had no idea if it was any good. The only way to find out was to read more poetry. I discovered Ann ...

Furious Vaginas: Do books live in particular places?
http://www.furiousvaginas.com/2015/07/do-books-live-in-particular-places.html
A discipline by Krissy Kneen. Thursday, July 2, 2015. Do books live in particular places? I am trying to slowly refocus on my manuscript. It is a rough sketchy first draft of a thing. I finished it last year. It was hard to write and particularly unpleasant even as manuscripts go (and they are so often unpleasant). I wrote it down in Tasmania, in a poet's shack on the water in a place called Southport. The southernmost pub in Australia is in Southport. These are irrational thoughts, but maybe there is so...

Furious Vaginas: November 2014
http://www.furiousvaginas.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
A discipline by Krissy Kneen. Thursday, November 13, 2014. How poetry is different to prose. I sit myself at the table and I write. The Muse? I will have none of it. I am more interested in hard work than in inspiration. If I wait for the muse I will be waiting a lifetime. My grandmother is shaking her head, she of the workmanlike elbows and fists. You must grab it - and the fly plucked from the air. But my grandmother never wrote a poem. There is no grabbing a poem. It is more like photo...Somehow I hav...

A discipline by Krissy Kneen. Saturday, March 28, 2015. I already get a bit of traffic from people seating for DIY vibrators or true sex stories but I am so looking forward to claiming a few new key word search terms when my book The Adventures of Holly White and the Incredible Sex Machine hits the shelves. Here I'll add some in for you. ORAC (The acronym for Reich's Orgone Energy Accumulator and also the computer from Blakes 7. Coincidence? Eye in the arse. Wednesday, March 18, 2015.
