My poem, “Present Eventually” is at The Bookends Review today! Super pleased to see another poem in that venue. It’s interesting looking back on this poem, as I wrote it several years ago, but so much of it is applicable to the internal work I’m doing recently. I know what I was writing about meant […]

Check out the most recent issue of The Wild Word, based out of Berlin! Issue 17 is based on the theme, “Filth.” Two of my poems, “When I Told You I Was A Prostitute,” and “Realizing You Are The Desire,” are there!

My poem “Juliet, I Am Not,” appears in Issue 2 of CEO Literary Magazine. This poem is several years old, so it was so nice to see it finally find a home and an audience.

My poem, “Cinderella,” at The Bookends Review. So nice to see an old poem get a fresh face as a published piece. ♥

A few weekends ago I finished the MSF Course, and thus began my journey in searching for a motorcycle. What I didn’t anticipate, and what is now obvious is: I’m short, I’m 5’2″. So, I needed a bike that would accommodate that! This became very obvious after making a trip to see a bike, and […]

I was playing around with Photoshop, learning some skills, and came up with this. It seems like a very fitting theme for today, as I’m going to look at a motorcycle, and I’m doing some intense therapy / healing. This print, various other items, and a throw pillow, are all available at my Redbubble Shop. […]

I know I’ve been distant the past month. This is due to many factors—visiting friends out-of-town, which was refreshing, working through abuse memories and healing (always), but the last few weekends it’s been about learning how to RIDE A MOTORCYCLE. This is something I never thought I would be capable of, having been told since […]

In a burst of trying to get myself motivated and focused in a positive direction, I have been making some colorful “posters” in Photoshop. Here is one of them: “Yes is the answer you’re looking for.” And this design on an A-line dress, because feel-good feeling and fashion should go together! Take a look, here, […]

I have decided to do an Artist Spotlight series, with the aim of introducing you to new artists and their works. I also intend to analyze and break down my reasons for liking the artist. What is it I’m drawn to? What part of me identifies with the artist? It is beyond, “I like this […]

I’ve been meaning to write a more in-depth post for some time. My head space has been a bit scrambled, and I’ve been wading through a lot of current life sideline emotion and the more nebulous backlog of emotion from the history of abuse. Abuse sucks, plain and simple. It is a powerful force that […]

There was a lovely portrait on the front of a recent National Geographic. So, I drew her (my hand work is terrible–need to work on that!) and added a potted plant, because I have been looking at a lot of Hope Gangloff lately, and it made me think of props in her wonderful portraits.

I was looking through some photo albums a few days ago, and spotted this lovely picture of a dark purple wild iris. Using the new Cintiq I was given, I decided to try to draw it. Even though there are artistic liberties in this picture, I like it! The start of the image, working in […]

My awesome family bought me a Cintiq! It is the most loveliest, most beautiful, most responsive, happiness-generating piece of equipment I have ever had in my life. Cintiq is a drawing tool. It has a stylus and a pad, and easily enables drawing in digital format. So, instead of drawing with my Fujitsu, which I […]
