Experiences in PoetryTop Story - March 2019
I am a poet. I don't have any books published, but I am a poet. When I sit down to write, it's what comes easiest. The fiction I write often comes from poems or turns into poems or, at the very least, is poetic. I love poetry.

14 Creative Ways to Celebrate Valentine's Day
I need to admit something. I love Valentine’s Day. I don’t understand why it gets such a bad rap. Single people act like they climbed up to the treehouse just to see a “couples only” sign hanging on the door. And don’t get me started on couples who announce they don’t “do” Valentine’s Day—which means, “we’re too cool.”

Why You Should Go to Community College First
I took a year off after high school, and it was one of the best things I’ve done. It gave me time to save money, travel a little, and think about what I wanted to do with my life. It also gave me the chance to really consider where I wanted to go to school.

DIY Peppermint Salt and Scrub
I love at-home spa days, and when I decide to pamper myself I go all out. Face masks, scrubs, moisturizers—you name it, I probably use it. There's nothing better than treating yourself to a little extra TLC when you can, especially in the winter.

7 Things That Happen on a Social Media Break
I love social media. It allows me to stay connected to family in different cities and states. It lets me talk to friends I have in other countries. It's all right there at my fingertips — with the push of a button I can share a photo, post a thought, or tell someone I'm thinking of them. I can't imagine a life without social media.
