I'm a self-published author and newbie artist. Writing: I've self-published poetry books and short stories, one novel, and two novellas. I continue to work on stories that I hope to publish in the near future. Arts & Crafts: I've always loved arts and crafts and last year I made the decision to take the plunge and start creating. I paint (acrylic, watercolor, and oil pastel), sew, and create resin crafts. I hope to continue to improve in these areas while always creating something beautiful.
