About Me 
: Mother first and foremost of the most beautiful boy I ever laid my eyes upon...
Fortunate and lucky to find love in friendship / family and strangers that have been generous enough to lend their hand and get this project up and running....

Writing since the age of 12, when I discovered books... Loads of books. And, what they became for and to me.
-An Inspiration / An Escape;

At 32 I went back to college, and there was inspired by a woman named Dina Kirchminer (My English Teacher) with whom told me that: "Writers Are Weird".. Something I had been called my whole life it seems. And, with whom liked what I had to write and encouraged me to continue. She reopened the world of William Shakespeare to me, and my love for characters such as "Alice In Wonderland".

Writing to me is like:
Jumping into Another's World. A picture taken through the eyes of another. Held within a hand..
Vivid. Without meaning.. Without the words "No you can't"...
Complete / Incomplete.
Finding new meanings.
Like a heartbeat quickening &/or the feeling of falling in love.
Pages, endless...
Falling into... Never letting me go...

May my words inspire you..


Thru-The-Looking-Glass..
