January 9th 1811 saw the very first women’s golf tournament at Musselburgh.

It always puzzles me how, even though they had women’s golf tournaments over 200 years ago, it took nearby club at Muirfield, The Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers 228 years to allow Women members.

Anyway on with the story at hand, Mary, Queen of Scots, is noted by some as the first female to play golf., possibly on the very golf course at Musselburgh where this tournament took place. Mary is credited for creating the term “caddie” which was derived from the word “cadets” used by her when referring to her assistants.

The first recorded golf tournament for women only occurred on January 9th, 1811, it was open to local fishermen's wives of Musselburgh and Fisherrow, a neighboring town. The event was organized by the Musselburgh Golf Club and took place on their eighteen hole pitch and putt course. The prize for the winner was a creel and a shawl, with the runner up receiving two handkerchiefs from Barcelona. The event was won by the 'charming Sally’, though other than her first name, her identity is not known.

In 1843 the St Andrews Golf Club was formed in Scotland. Later in 1867 the very first women’s golf club was formed, which was initially formed as The Ladies Club of St Andrews. The club later became known as the St Andrews Ladies Putting Club and is currently known as The Ladies Putting Club of St Andrews. After initial struggles to gain members the club grew to 500 members after its first 19 years.

Women’s golf nowadays is big business, especially in the US, where according to a recent report is increasing the overall prize money payout of its signature women’s championship from $5.5 million in 2021 in 2024 a schedule $116 million in prize money is on offer with a record 10 regular tournaments offering at least $3 million. It's still way short of the men's game though, the USPGA tournament alone had a prize fund last year of $17.5 million, the winner picked up $3.15 million.

Femslash February 2024: Audrey/Jody

"What cannot be said will be wept."

— Sappho of Lesbos

Read here: Sans Pitié. romantic female friendship: 18th century

Heartless, and yet more than what people see.

Flashback, to England in 1778, the height of the convent garden Harris list and the normalizing of mistresses and the sex trade

“I’m empty Jody, there’s no heart here not for man nor woman. Nothing but stone,” Audrey said simply.

“My sweet girl,” Jody Fraser said in return. “The burden you carry is that of a heart that feels too keenly. That loves better than many men or women deserve,” Fraser finished.

The dark-haired harlot wept, fetching a handkerchief from her robe pockets.

“Shhh,” Fraser consoled most surely, wiping away Audrey’s tears.

“I loved your maman, you know, you silly cunt,” Fraser said. Taking Audrey gently in her arms and kissing her forehead. Audrey, being a French woman in her trade, was used to much rough treatment and false or ill-intended affections. But from the dominatrix of the Harris list: Jody Fraser she had received nothing but platonic affection and kindness.

“You're a good girl, Audrey, don’t you ever forget it,” Fraser said. Holding Audrey gently against the London park bench as she cried.

“We are more than what they say, we are more than what people merely see,” the raven-haired dominatrix said.

Present day, NOLA, Lousiana

As if Audrey could ever forget that conversation. However much she pretended Audrey could not. The burden she carried was that of a heavy heart. Somehow, someway she would endure and continue on. She did not know what lay ahead, but she’d endure. She knew no other way.

What cannot be said will be wept. — Sappho

Who Defends the Dead?

The Ivory Tower has recast minstrelsy by incorporating the Black Boule. These glorified coon thespians are impersonators of Black Exceptionalism because they are representative of the Talented Tenth.

I’mma snitch!

Ida B. Wells,

It is you I seek to emulate in my timeline. Can I borrow your handkerchief? I need to wipe my mouth before I speak to you.

How does a person who made a career out of writing your biography fail to hypothesize how you might embody the “sword among lions” at the unveiling of your Bust?

Why would the person who takes up writing a screenplay on your life seem most amazed by your fierce resistance within your petite stature?

I have known women who tame men four times their size. Spiders take down elephants; that which is unsaid reveals the lies.

Have you become a spectacle like Saartjie Baartman? Does your legacy hang in the museum of publishers who pimp you as an artifact? Do the power structures render revolutionaries mute and invisible until their resistance can be strategically deployed to serve the illusion of aspirational change while reinforcing complacency?

Identity politics assumes power is not a shared goalpost. I ought to trust you because your skin color or reproductive organs are the same as mine? In the precarious year of 2024, how does that even compute as a complete thought?

Ida—I’m sorry. I am genuinely dismayed that your legacy is an open casket that intellectual grave diggers have ransacked. At least we know who you are, right?

You and I both are too poor and sensible to indulge the lure.

Democracy is on hospice care, but we like representation, so we bask in the ceremonious affair of your statue adorning the foyer of Columbia’s School of Journalism.

Okay. Let's just start with the whole vibe of this book, making me feel good in a comforting, blissful, perfect romance way... yet, also with plenty of friction between not only the characters but the different pieces to this world. Honestly, this was simply divine.

I love a good romance, and I especially love enemies-to-lovers. This kind-hearted main character, Niamh, has beautiful magic that gives her the ability to stitch her emotions into gowns, men's jackets, handkerchiefs, you name it. She is hired as a Machlander in the palace of Avaland, which until recently controlled her country, basically running it into the ground. This is where the politics of the story, this world, primarily arises. However, when she meets Kit, the soon to be married prince, things get all sorts of thorny and soft quite quickly.

I loved this so much. This is a humorous and romantic story that will be perfect to brighten anyone's day!

Out January 2, 2024!

Thank you, Netgalley and Publisher, for this Arc!
