Posted on August 13, 2015 by Rockstar Dinosaur Pirate Princess

Posted on July 12, 2015 by Rockstar Dinosaur Pirate Princess

You may have noticed that blogday has been missing for a couple of weeks. I have no excuse for this – I wasn’t moving house (thank goodness – I’ve already done that 5 times since starting this blog) or on … Continue reading →

woman to woman: we need to talk

Posted on May 25, 2015 by Rockstar Dinosaur Pirate Princess

Tea Myths and Sympathy

Posted on March 8, 2015 by Rockstar Dinosaur Pirate Princess

I’m going to be upfront about this – I am experiencing an online form of performance anxiety. My blog, up until Monday evening, was bimbling along with an average of perhaps around 13 views per day. I was pretty happy … Continue reading →

Posted on March 2, 2015 by Rockstar Dinosaur Pirate Princess

A short one today as my life is currently very complicated and conspiring against my preference to spend all of my days working out what to blog. But do you know what isn’t complicated? Consent. It’s been much discussed recently; what … Continue reading →

Feminism is…

Posted on February 15, 2015 by Rockstar Dinosaur Pirate Princess

Our Bodies, Our Future

Posted on January 18, 2015 by Rockstar Dinosaur Pirate Princess
