My Womanifesto

Bliss Ripple is a catalog of clues— fieldnotes for living into one’s internal bliss. Compiled through the creative works of poet, artist, musician, and mama Maggie A. Bishop, Bliss Ripple explores the idea of resounding joy— how to create it and expand it through living with passionate honesty.

Here you will find poems, songs, and observations written under the influence of inspiration Maggie finds scuttling and searching amidst the varied Missouri landscape with her wonder-son, adventurer Arlo, and her artist-partner and dream confidant Josh (who is also a photographer and music promoter).

In the beginning:

Dreadlocked--
This journey began a long while ago in my heart. The first locks were formed in my parent's van, on the way home from our homestate of Indiana on December 30th, 2007, by my brother. So far about 2/3 of my head is done. Contributors thus far: my brother, my mother, my husband and myself. I have a lot of hair.

This photo is by my husband, you can see more here.
