About Me
I love to write, I love to talk, kissing, laughing and singing come next. As an entertainment industry entrepreneur and artist life has been interesting to say the very least.
Lately I have been learning to share that adventure through writing online. I had no idea that the process would be so satisfying. Creating my very own global community gives me pleasure and peace in ways I had not known, until now.
Please do drop me a line. If you have been hanging out around here I have a feeling I want to know you.

Favorite Word:
incandescentMy favorites change constantly. This one though is in my all time top five. Its sound goes beyond visual description and becomes an emotional picture as well. Now that, is my kind of word.
Least Favorite Word:
pedagogyIt just makes me think of... boring... tedious... lectures, yawn. Though the starring out of the window dreaming portion of what it invokes does get me some excited.
Favorite Quote:
"Today, like every other day, we wake up empty and frightened. Don't open the door to the study and begin reading. Take down a musical instrument. Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground."
