ThinkingDaughters is a work of literary expression built in and because of the capabilities of the cyberTool right now in your hand or on the desk in front of you.
I am a human whose first language of thinking, and therefore my conception of myself as subject “I”, ReadMore was formed in a familial practice of spoken and written literacy orchestrated by my parents, humans of belief in thinking and in our capacity to learn and change. My foundational self formed by this inheritance of print-rooted literacy has undergone transformation ReadMore by the happenstance of being born into a revolution in our understanding of the connectivity of all earthlyLife simultaneous with the revolution in our tools of literacy from print to digital. Through it all my search, then and still, is centered on what makes female meaning; an evolution ReadMore entirely interwoven with, and as shapeshifting as the transmutations
of the cyber.

Maybe we'll start here.
That we are all daughters.

This work has multiple narrative directions. All entwined and leading toward the same destination of meaning.
It can be encountered vertically through a SpineOfTellings in a nascently traditional cyber practice of downward scroll that follows an intended narratorial direction in what I’ve to say. (Intended narratorial direction being traditional in print literacy, the carrier medium of my origins as a ThinkingDaughter.)
Additionally, there are horizontal pathways linked off this spine that, to my mind, augment the meanings of the downward scroll.
Sliding leftward are Narratorials, exposition anchored in quotations from ancestress printLiterates who have been important in the growth of my thinking and sense of self. And sliding right of the downward scroll are Authortorials, expressions of direct address from me to you. The homeScreen Authortorial is where you are at the moment.
Or you can follow through a Realia
of Keywords composed of definitions for words used repeatedly in the work. This I intend as an associative, hopscotch path which, it is my hope, will also augment in another way your travel to my intended destination of meaning.
In honor of transparencyIn honor of transparency or in the intimacy of confession, or a writerly excess of explaining what most likely does not need it: my lifelong expressive travel along a circuitous, multimedia route has led me to this amalgamator
tool of the cyber. My nascent
literacy here, both in the digital languages and in my translations of cyber's meanings, is as an attentive apprentice.
Through it all, I remain bound to a love of language & hold tight to my practice of written expression. And now, wandering cyber’s ever expanding & spherical frontiers, my exploration some off balance, I’ve found, and mostly to my delight, that composing and understanding narratorial meaning in this medium requires lightfootedness and experiment. From you, too, I’d think.
