Let me tell you a secret

I was a loud, boisterous, confident kid. I bet you were too, yes?

The older I got, the more I buried myself. Always trying to be perfect by hiding my quirks and my flaws. For a long time I struggled with my body image and my relationship to food. Eventually I fell into a cycle of numbing myself from life.

But I always wanted to share my art with the world, though fear and low self-esteem held me back… until now.

In my heart of hearts I am a Poet, but I work in all elements of the written word and my debut novel is currently in progress. I am also a mixed-media painter, deep in the trenches of experimentation.

I am still a sensitive flower, and I never want that to change. I am also a chronic overthinker - but overthinkers must create to stay sane
