I think I first came into contact with Greta on Livejournal maybe?! I was very active on that site from about 2003 to maybe 2009... We kept in touch (sort of) through social media over the years! She recently ordered some stuff from my Etsy Store and of course i remembered her :) It was cool to hear from her and be back in touch! Here's what she has been up to lately..... Tell me a little about yourself
My name is Greta. I turned 35 in March. I live in Tennessee. When did you discover Riot Grrrl & zines? How did it impact or influence you & your life? How do you think it has changed over the years? I discovered riot grrrl in 1998. I recently got into reading zines because I didn't have access to getting any zines. The riot grrrl movement made me realize how important equality, feminism, and women's rights are to everyone. It helped me learn about each of these issues. I think there has been a riot grrrl revival going on since the riot grrrl movement began. I think some people don't realize riot grrrl isnt about labels, fashion, etc. but about speaking out about women's issues. Tell me about Riot Grrrl Online, When & why did you start it? Is it something that you still do? Riot Grrrl Online is located here now: http://riotgrrrlonline. wordpress.com/ I started the first Riot Grrrl Online website on Angelfire, then got hosted by: girlsvomitcandy.com then hot-topic.org, which are both no more. I had noticed a lack of riot grrrl websites when I created the first Riot Grrrl Online website on Angelfire. What other projects did you do/have you done, & are you currently working on anything new? I finally got my own domains but I haven't really started building them yet. I'm going to start making websites again. I've had various websites about various things over the years. I love creating websites. Have you read any good books lately? No, I haven't had much time to read in a long time. I do need to get back into reading books. How can people contact you or find you online? @riotgrrrlonline on Twitter Even if I'm not posting on Twitter, I still check my messages and notifications. |
