  29. Hi August,
    After signing up for BOAW Fest, I took the time to read some of your posts. Just read “Does Dirt Have Calories” – powerful! And I will be watching Miss Representation, and then sharing it with my daughter. Thank you for running BOAW – it’s so important for us to change how we view ourselves!

    Best,
    Sue

I sincerely wish you all the best wherever your life’s’ journey leads you.
