Becoming
About me: Hello. My name is Stephen Mead. When not working a day job to pay the bills, I am a published artist and writer living in northeastern NY. This site was recommended to me my the prolific poet Joanne Olivieri of YaSou! Magazine. Joanne is a good hearted soul who in addition to profiling some of my art/writing pieces from "Selected Works", http://www.lulu.com/stephenmead , had/has the common sense business savvy to know a majority of us artists/writers working today have to promote ourselves. Thus, in lieu of an agent, I come to MySpace with a smile and an open hand to say: "Welcome. Come in. I hope you enjoy spending some time here." Also, if you have the time, please visit my squidoo page or "Maintaining Spirit" hub!

HELLO. Hope you're doing good. SO what do you think the final healthcare reform bill should be named? "The American Plan"? "Kennedy Care"? ...and why do you think the conservative machine continues to overwhelm the public debate? Visit http://wp.me/ps8BM-75 Peace!
(It's especially rare for me to have 45 friends in common with anyone!)
To all who see this: Please use my profile as a place to discover new musicians -- Just click on one of my friends: most are underrated, underexposed musicians, many different genres. Some are well-known, but many are unknown and struggling, and to me all sound at least very promising.
Thanks for the comment. Think this photo is being used for a Courage To Change ( Marriage Equality) Capital Campaign Video. I send you a measure of our love!

About this page:
I have been very active in Domestic Violence causes all of my adult life. I noticed a need in the world pertaining to Same Sex Domestic Violence. It happens more than people know. Unfortunately there are a number of gay people who barely consider themselves worthy or valued as a gay person much less a Domestic Violence Victim. There are also very limited resources, statistics, or information, for Same Sex Domestic Violence. Hopefully through empowerment and education we can change some of this. :D
