About me

Gender Female
Occupation Artist & Writer
Location Orlando, Florida, United States
Introduction "If you asked me what I came into this world to do, I will tell you...I came to live out loud. [Emile Zola.]
Interests Just about everything I come across. In no particular order: Writing, reading, photography, scrapbooking, making my home into a more nurturing place to be, keeping Luckie (my chiweenie) and Jackiebird (my cockatiel) happy.
Favorite Movies Somewhere In Time, Moulin Rouge (who knew Nicole Kidman could sing?), A Star is Born (Streisand/Kristofferson version), The Apostle - Robert Duval is amazing, and the story of his persistence in making that movie a reality is a wonderful example of having the courage of one's convictions. Finding Neverland, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Edward Scissorhands, Pirates of the Carribean 1, 2 and 3, Up!, and more!
Favorite Music Jackson Browne is my #1 all-time favorite musician in any genre, and to Jackson I will always be true! There's another quote I love in his song "For a Dancer, " and it goes like this: "...somewhere between the time you arrive and the time you go may lie a reason you were alive that you'll never know." That's a pretty convincing argument for staying alert all the time for places to express love, by my way of thinking.
Favorite Books Yes. I can list a few, but there are so many favorites. Fiction: Jodi Picoult. Her writing touches something powerful inside me. "Mother of Pearl, " by Melinda Haynes. I was entranced through this entire book. I love so many books, thank God for library cards or I'd be living on the street!
