LaSara FireFox
LaSara FireFox (now LaSara Firefox Allen) is an American writer, game designer, and a neuro-linguistic programming master practitioner and trainer.[1] She is a family-traditions witch and a second-generation ordained priestess.[2] Firefox is a graduate of the San Francisco Sex Information organization and has made several appearances in television programs such as Playboy TV's Sexcetera'.[3]
Firefox has written and taught in the fields of spirituality, human sexuality, parenting and bipolar disorder. In addition to Sexy Witch, her writing has been published in numerous anthologies, textbooks, magazines,[4] an encyclopedia, and extensively in online journals. She was also included in the Hot Mommas project on women in leadership. Her essay on bipolar disorder and the entrepreneurial life was second runner up in their national case study competition, and was included in the entrepreneurship textbook, Essentials of Small Business Management, 6th Edition.
"Lasara's ideas about female empowerment are evident in her book, "Sexy Witch",[5] which is still a relevant and controversial work nearly a decade later. "Sexy Witch" is in its third printing in the US, and second printing in both Mexico and the Czech Republic. Sexy Witch is published in four languages, and has been reviewed in better than 12."
She published The Pussy Poems in response to the censure of Michigan State Rep. Lisa Brown for saying the word vagina in a debate on the legislation of abortion rights.
Firefox was raised at Greenfield Ranch in Ukiah, California, a 5,600-acre (23 km2) property which was sub-divided into several parcels, some with intentional communities such as Coeden Brith, where Oberon Zell-Ravenheart and Morning Glory Zell-Ravenheart founded the Holy Order of Mother Earth (a precursor to the Church of All Worlds), adjacent to Annwfn (run by Gwydion Pendderwen).[6][7] She is a former president of the Greenfield Ranch Association. She was a clergy member and former president of the board (1999 and 2000) of the Church of All Worlds.[8]
Bewitching Names references Lasara in a discussion on the names of Neo-Pagan witches and their children.
