Brenna Twohy - “Fantastic Breasts and Where To Find Them” (NPS 2014)

"My sex cannot be packaged. My sex is magic. It is part of a bigger story. I am whole. I exist when you are not fucking me."

One of the most memorable poems we saw at the National Poetry Slam this year. Harry Potter, feminism, sex positivity.

“It honestly amazes me to see how quick people are to defend those in high power positions. Yes, we know, not ALL cops, not ALL men, not ALL white people, etc, but when it turns into a large chunk of a group doing something wrong and oppressing those not as privileged as them, we NEED to start having discussions about it. The things happening now are bigger than the hurt feelings of people who are more privileged than others. Stereotypes about cops, men, white people, etc hurt their feelings, stereotypes about the oppressed are literally killing them.”

“Megan Falley’s writing is the love child between precision and imagery. Her work takes you on a roller coaster from start to finish and keeps you from seeing the twists and turns ahead. What makes Megan special however, is the fact that she teaches twice as good as she writes, and makes writers understand themselves in ways hey previously couldn’t, and helps them better convey their thoughts to a reader. I am a testament to the growth Megan can invoke in a writer, and I wouldn’t have half the knowledge and understanding of the written world of work without my time with her.”
