About Me
Who am I? Good question. You may glean something from the following information.
Use that menu over there to find your way around.
Feel free to check out my Facebook. If you'd rather read my mind (select excerpts, anyway), then take a look at my blog. But I warn you: the realm of my thoughts can be a messy and incoherent place. And often nothing much happens there, anyway.
Onward...
Firstly, a few words about my wordcraft. I've been writing since I was fourteen years old, self-taught. Perhaps unsurprisingly, I was first inspired by spirituality; namely, what I was beginning to learn about Wicca at the time. Things have changed since then and I keep my mind open. I may not call myself Wiccan (or anything else in particular), but I'll always honour what I learned then and how it opened me up to spirituality and self-expression.
