About me

Gender	Female
Location	Winnipeg, Manitoba
Introduction	Dear ones, this is a post of the inner workings of my brain. I was brought into this world by two hard working people and they called me Megan. I go by Madge to most, Megsie to my Grandma, Frances to others, and Margaret to one. I am a grab bag of names and moods. To be frank, I don't have much of a filter in my daily routine and I do not have much of a filter here either. Please excuse the occasional curse, self-absorbed slip-up or inappropriate comment. Writing is very important to me as I have a difficult time articulating myself verbally. I write to clean out my insides. I have no shame when it comes to sharing heartbreaking works of things that happen to me, I think it is terribly important to acknowledge the painful, sad and dark parts of life. These are the bits that keep me humble and on my knees. I write what I feel and nothing is premeditated. I also enjoy taking photographs of people and their craned necks, lines around the eyes, laughing mouths, working hands, rumpled clothes, tiny bits of nakedness, the babies, the children, the mamas and papas, I love it all. Best regards to all.
Interests	If I could photograph, cycle, cook, print-make, bake, travel, sew, entertain, draw, run and make stuff with my hands for the rest of my life, I will be full. If I could make ends meet doing any of those things, I would be very full. I like life very much.
