Happy World Book Day!

Happy World Book Day! Over the last 11 years I have published 13 books – ranging from poetry to the supernatural – and every one was a labor of love, as well as a journey and exploration of what was inspiring me at the time that I wrote them. My poems and my stories are all influenced and infused with elements of me, of my life, of my story, and I hope that those who have read any of my books of poetry or stories have enjoyed what they have read! All my books are available to buy on Amazon. My amazing publisher and long-standing collaborator is Zeloo Media. And without the support of my family and friends I would not have done what I have done, I would not have written what I have written, I would not have published what I have published. It’s been a wild, interesting, and inspiring ride from beginning to end! 😊
