Today, I did a delightful interview with a German social science researcher about the trad wife movement, what brought me to it, how was I raised, etc. The researcher was very nice and friendly, and I'd be glad to help her in the future. She said something too that really stuck with me. I told … Continue reading Interview

New Visual/Poetic Project
I am beginning a new project that is part surreal poetry, part visual art. I am using typography as a visual art form. The very shape and color of letters and words on a page can be visual art, irrespective of meaning. I want to create a book of visual and verbal poetry/art. I want … Continue reading New Visual/Poetic Project
Ode to Joy
Last night, while passing out candy to the roughly 560 kids who came to the door, I began to read a book of poetry by Anne Carson. Suddenly, for the first time in months, poetry came to me! I'm afraid to get my hopes up, but I think poetry is back. I'm so excited! I … Continue reading Ode to Joy
Language Holes
Over the white spaces in my sentences It snows star dust. I lick the frosting off the spoon in the kitchen. My language has well designed holes, As though my words were lace. Try as we might, We all carry Monday morning inside us. What I’d like to do is take my needle That my … Continue reading Language Holes
Ever Closer to the Secret
In a hall of mirrors I do not reflect. Radar cannot smell me Though I move ever closer to the secret. My face is tempered glass And my feet are temperamental. What does the red bird, Beak open with no song, Signify? Climb among my immortal diamonds And find out.
What Comes Next…
White catastrophe of spilled milk. I let the lizards have the garden. Some frightening ambrosia will be drunk by two people too mummified in receipts to be in love. What comes next but neckties and nectarines? I cry awhile and the spider tells me my face is much cleaner.

New Projects In The Works
I will be doing a series of moodscapes out of tulle on ink covered mixed media paper. I want a 3D moodscape to express my highs and lows of Bipolar, as well as the mountains and valleys of being a creative. I may submit them to a show or sell them. This year I will … Continue reading New Projects In The Works
At Work in My Studio
I may start selling my art soon. I am debating getting into the NFT market with my digital collages, and using regular sales for my paintings. I don't know if they would ever sell or not, but it's something I might do. Either way I'm taking seriously my ability to work full time on writing … Continue reading At Work in My Studio
A Poem in Progress
As you can see from the title of this site, I'm a writer. Usually I write poetry, but I sometimes dabble in non fiction or science fiction or a little bit of speculative fiction. Here is a poem I have been working on. Thunder is hard To sleep on as I drift in the breeze. … Continue reading A Poem in Progress
