Here is book description:
temp words
I started writing this book in 1996,
when I was working as a temp in San Francisco, mostly as a receptionist. I was
grieving the loss of my brother, and took whatever opportunity possible to
write underneath the florescent lights. My brother’s death rocked my paradigm
and forced me to face the impermanence of our lives. Thoughts, feelings, experiences, people, faith, relationships,
politics, identity, things (except maybe plastic bags) change; nothing is
static. temp words is a journey
through impermanence from my perspective as a mixed race woman of color living
in America. This is my edge, this is how I navigate through life: one moment at
a time.
Twenty
percent of the proceeds from temp words will
go to MISSSEY, a community based organization in Oakland, California, whose
goal is to eradicate the commercial sexual exploitation of
our children.
