There are a lot of things we as HIV positive people have to look out for. But one of our main enemies is Stress. You can take all the medication you want, eat all the good food that nourishes your body, and have all the protected sex anyone can have BUT when your stressed out all of it goes out the window.

Please deal with stress different ways, some of us have a nice glass of wine, other might exercise, but I keep myself busy with duties and project that work to better our community whether its leather, gay, straight, black of white; it doesnt matter to me.

But sometimes my husband says I do too much and I stretch myself to much. This is true and that my friend, can be stressful as well.

In November 2009 I was awarded the Mr. Maryland Leather 2010 title so now I will go onto compete in May for the IML International Mr. Leather title, in Chicago on Memorial Day Weekend. I have to learn my judges, leather history and traditions, and I have to be on point with my answers. Being Mr. Maryland Leather 2010 comes with responsibilities as well. I have to make appearances and have been asked to judge contest too.

In my spare time I write for Baltimores Gay Life Newspaper, GBMNews.com, the body.com, The Black AIDS Institute, and Justins HIV Journal. I will also start writing for another publication as well.

Im married as most of you know so taking care of him means a lot to me. We are trying to settle on a piece of land in Laurel and building our single family home from the ground up. That is stressful too

I just got a promotion at work too which means more responsibility there as well and since my employer is the IRS there is something we like to call, TAX SEASON. Need I say more?

I also got a call from Hollywood to work on a special project but I cannot say anything at the moment all I can say is that there will be an announcement about the project next month.

All these things that are going on in my life are time consuming and can be stressful. If you lead a busy life like mine my advice to you is take it one step at a time. Relax and dont sweat the small stuff. If you do if will not be good for your body or anyone else around you. Acupuncture is a great way to go as well or find an activity that relaxes your mind, body and spirit

We are a project of the Safe Zone Foundation (501c3), and currently no staff or contributors are compensated for their work. All efforts are voluntary labors of love, although we hope to change this in the future. Submitting excellent writing will help us in this endeavor, as will doing so with a positive, professional attitude. We are a new publication and are deeply appreciative of the enthusiasm from all our volunteers—editors and contributors alike.

We are seeking submissions in the following categories: Features, Columns, Reviews, and Literary Magazine (poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction). In general, we are looking for pieces that look out onto the world, rather than strictly within the self.

Please query Features, Columns, and Reviews with idea(s), clips and/or writing samples, and—if pertinent to your submission—professional qualifications and experience. Word counts are firm, unless editors have approved a specified extension on length. Any piece submitted as is is not accepted by the Hawaii Womens Journal. All pieces are subject to editorial review.

We are also interested in features pertaining to current youth issues. Please query with ideas and writing samples.

For the Literary Magazine, please query with your completed poem, short fiction, personal essay, or other creative nonfiction piece (immersion, memoir, meditative, lyric, etc.). The maximum word count for short fiction and creative nonfiction is 5,000 words. There is no word limit for poetry, but please dont send us your 100-page manifesto: that is not a poem, that is a novel in poems.

For Artists, Photographers, and Graphic Designers: Please submit work as high-resolution GIFs, JPEGs, or TIFs scanned at 300 ppi/dpi or higher. Submitted work does not need to accompany a written article; with your approval, we may choose to publish your submission with an accepted article or regular column that thematically fits your work . Accepted work must be solely owned by the Artist/Photographer/Graphic Artist and may not be licensed to any other publication or corporate entity prior to acceptance.

Send all queries, art, photography, love letters, hate mail, and solicited and unsolicited materials to: submissions@hawaiiwomensjournal.com.
