Bio
Playwright and poet.
My goal as a writer is to write thoughtful pieces of prose, poetry and stage plays. Hopefully, the end results are entertaining and engaging, with layers of meaning that make sense to the whole or a theme therein.

Soleil
Even though she felt she was alone in all the world, she tried her best to shine through the darkness of her endlessday. Everyone shunned her, averted their eyes. Oh, they liked her for a while it seemed, but not for long, as they would scuttle for shelter to avoid her and her gaze.

Going on a Bear HuntTop Story - April 2023
There are no bears in this letter; it is a cautionary tale all too true. To Whom It May Concern: Lately, I have been considering my part in my life and the lives of my birth family. It seems strange to have to qualify my “birth family” as such; it gives it an unintended distance and otherness. I mean, these are my mom and dad, my sister and my brother, you know? Nevertheless, I have my own family and we have our own story which is separate from them, the caveat being that I am part of both.

Forever Yours
Dear Poetry, I had no idea how difficult this would be. I have started this letter to you fourteen times and have discarded all of those attempts. I am writing to you to try to tell you how I feel about you. This is a love letter, plain and simple.
