Introduction	I am an author, poet, artist, and inveterate bookwyrm. I enjoy going barefoot on grass, and I also love dancing in the rain. I am an Open Champion Irish dancer and a daydreamer, as well as a perfectionist. Writing is my passion. In my view poetry and prose should not necessarily be separated, but can be made one and the same . . . I read classic literature for fun, and my weakness is English scones with clotted cream and lemoncurd. A proud homeschool graduate, I now attend University and juggle my time between my studies, my writing, and my family, and strive always to glorify God in all three.
