"I am not a poet
I am the girl
That owns the skies and paints the world
With all the words except her own;
I am not a poet."

~Excerpt "Not a Poet"~





I tend to write when my muse takes me.  I like to write with a purpose, although I'm rarely lucky enough to find a solid one.  The purpose usually becomes clear after I've finished the piece, so from there I can refine imagery and diction to suit the purpose and audience.  My inspirations are far and wide.  Music is a major one, any song can strike a chord at the right moment and set my pen to scrawling life into a blank page.  I read all varieties of books, although I really enjoy the classics.  The Stone Angel by Margaret Lawrence, Hunchback of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo, Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck, and anything by Barbara Kingsolver.  I also like Tamora Pierce and Garth Nix.  I listen to everything music-wise; I'm a classical singer, and I love celtic music.   Tool, Metallica, Nickelback, Three Days Grace, Our Lady Peace, Vanessa Carlton, Fefe Dobson, Josh Garner, Loreena McKennitt and various others are constantly in my CD player.



I'm a professional singer, and I'm learning guitar.  I suppose I'll work on this later, and get it to sounding better.  Meanwhile, here's my website, for pictures of what I look like, I s'pose. I'm the one with the curls.

    Wow, that is truly your name? How wonderful you are. It was the name of my beloved cat who recently passed. You are lucky to have such a name that exudes delicacy and beauty!
