what's new

Coming Soon!!

Fanning the flames...


After multiple pushes from the Univsere in various subtle (and some not so subtle, brick-dropped-upon-head) ways, I will soon be offering some fun, self-paced courses to help my fellow creatives! 


I hope to cover topics that will spark joy and inspiration to aid you with:


  • hobby writing/journaling
  • novel writing & storytelling (creative fiction & nonfiction)
  • finishing your first manuscript
  • editing and the ego
  • how to receive (and express!) criticism without crushing a spirit
  • eliminating creative/energetic blocks


In addition, beginning February, 2023, I may offer opportunities to work one-on-one with me. Applications will be reviewed and accepted based on need, time requirements and how well I feel I can serve you in your writing endeavors. 


I offer these services based on my beliefs that:

 

Our souls naturally have a need to create and express themselves

We are all truly connected in this human experience

Love is the answer to any question

Everything is always working out for me...and for you!


 I sincerely wish you all blessings in your creative journey.


If you feel we might be a fit to work on your creative project, I welcome you to

contact me!

WRITING TIPS, TRICKS & FAILS

Just Write - A Poem

Just Write - A Poem

Just Write - A Poem

Keep going 'til you get to the end

Then put it away or send to a friend.


Write what you know

Research what you don't.


A thorough edit comes later

Regret this you won't.


I am no Yoda, despite the last line

But there IS a force you'll connect to in time


This is the source you'll need to tap into

For the words to flow from a true place within you

Always make notes before you forget

You think this will end in a rhyme

but...

Magic & Motivation

Just Write - A Poem

Just Write - A Poem

I have always been a writer. 


However, only as an adult did I discover the desire to know more about writing itself. 

How others have done it, why they do it, the single tie that threads us together, which is  simple: 


We are creators.


We write because there is no other way. It is just WHO we are.


I have discovered the magic of becoming a writ

I have always been a writer. 


However, only as an adult did I discover the desire to know more about writing itself. 

How others have done it, why they do it, the single tie that threads us together, which is  simple: 


We are creators.


We write because there is no other way. It is just WHO we are.


I have discovered the magic of becoming a writer, leaning into it, having the gumption to state I AM ONE.


WIth that came a desire to learn what craft is, how to improve it and realizing that reading only brings better writing from the writer. 


I also learned reading more won't stunt my creativity.

Someone else's brilliance (or even their shitty attempt at writing) will only serve to make you better.  

There are always more fascinating things to learn, even while reading fiction for leisure.
