Graffiti...coming soon
Graffiti is a collection of poetry and prose based on a deep appreciation and respect for humanity, nature, and inspiration needed for a life well-lived. Inspired by my former life as a lawyer, fighting for those who could not fight for themselves, standing against injustice, and bringing children into a world full of instability and pain, Graffiti explores the true wonders of the world, and finds the bright light, even in hollow caves of darkness. It expands our thinking from our own spaces and experiences, and lures us to step beyond our comfort zones, reminding ourselves and others that we are never alone. There is always a way, should we choose to see it. I hope that you allow the words of Graffiti to color your world with hues you never dreamed possible. Let it warm your heart, and tug at your motivation, pointing you toward the greater good. Feel Graffiti along whatever path you walk, see it in the eyes of people you pass, taste it in the food you prepare, and hear it in music of your life. Graffiti is whatever expression you want it to be. Let it move you.

Coming Soon
The Tiny Monarch is a mix of fiction and reality based on my own life's experiences, which are harsh, utterly unthinkable, yet, at times, perfectly wonderful. Yes, the unimaginable can, and did, happen. Writing this brought me to tears, sobbing over the keyboard, reliving, and tasting the bitterness that life served me. Yet, it deepened my understanding of mental illness, the dark burrow of evil that lies in the hearts of men, and the hands that are held out to you, if you only reach to grasp them. Sometimes you have to read to believe.
