Q & A

Tell us about your work in the Love is Color Anthology.

For Eternity expresses my eternal flame for my husband. No matter the weather I am

better with and because of him and our relationship.

Who or what inspired the work(s)?

Inspired by my relationship with my husband.

What writer, poet or artist inspires you the most and why?

I’m inspired by everyone. I feel we all have a unique voice (pen) that expresses our experience in this world and collectively we create art using words that can inspire, heal, and bring forth change. So big or small, in some way, every writer I touch base with or have had the pleasure of reading their words has inspired me.

What’s next for you?

Currently I don’t have any tentative plans except to continue writing and cultivating my craft.

Where can readers find your work?

I have 3 collections of poetry published and available on Amazon for sale. Occasionally I also post poetry on my Facebook page.
