Different
I am a creative being spilling over my brim with insights and ideas. I watch when I’m silent instead of speaking words that are just forming on my tongue.

His smile was infectious. He could captivate any audience. Laughing and joking or intelligently debating with others, heContinue reading “Giant Missing Piece”

My summer looks bright and open though and I will be dedicating almost all of my time to writing, editing and allContinue reading “Short Snippets”
