Amaranthine

But humanity is inherently inhumane.

Art By Glory Anna Lost In Trans_Lation “The mirror showed a reflection that wasn’t my own.” How I longed to embrace the woman on the other side of me: Marty Nelson. As it states on my birth certificate, at least, but I am Madeline. That is who I am, heart and soul. I thought the day I lifted my head to the heavens and sang out “she is me” proudly, with my bright red lipstick painted on, would…

GOOD VS. EVIL

And Brick By Brick, The Road To Hell Was Paved Must be Halloween Time because this is one of my first attempts at a short story, way-WAY back many subtexts ago! I share with you out of nostalgia and a nice fear based adrenaline rush! I jest, but honestly, I have such a soft spot for all my schoolgirl attempts at literature! You can take the space out of the sci-fi but you cannot take the…

CATHOUSE AEGIS

Part One: Blood In The Water Art By Glory Anna *Trigger warning alert: the topics and reality of abuse and violence against women are dealt with in this text.* Drip… The monotonous sound of a leaky faucet. Drip… Of rain in a downspout. Drip… Of blood falling from the opening of a fresh wound. Drip… “Counting down the blood in my hourglass. Drip by,” Drip… “How else would I keep…

Heart Shaped Box

What Becomes of Man The landscape is in turmoil. A wreck of what was once an ideal habitat for all living creatures. Even back in the days of landfills and pipelines, mountain mining and permafrost melting, when all they could seem to think of was a picture as big as the bottom dollar. We didn’t know how good we had it. How good we could have it, if feeling wasn’t outcast by the mind and the…

Mind, Body, and Writing

Mind, Body, and Writing

Photo by Wan Chen on Unsplash I am a self confessed adrenaline junkie. I love to be physical and literally throw myself into whatever it is I’m doing in the most explosive way. However, it isn’t just for the thrill of it, or the rush, It is for the experience and the mastery of it. When I was nothing but a wee little lumpkin, I was obsessed with ballet. My mother even gave me the antique…

The End

Saturday saw me write this definitive text…and I got to say I am trepeditiously pleased. A little over a year in the abstract making and I have a trilogy on my hands! Final word count was 300,074, with page # at 619 enough to see each book comfortably with 200+ pages – of course that’s just cursory, I still have the whittling and honing of editing to do and that always gives or takes!

Now I say…

~A Dream Bigger Than Me ~

Photo by Ade Santora on flickr

It’s funny how life and timing play out when it comes to your dreams. Take me for instance, I wanted to be a ballerina and tell stories through the fluidity of my movements, without the need of words, to convey meaning with my body, however, we didn’t have the money growing up, so I choreographed my own. I wanted to be a Broadway star and tell stories through the…

The nature of emotion. That’s something that compels my thoughts, fuels my writing, and intrigues my observation.

Watching people express themselves, hold back from expressing themselves, how they seem to interact…

Meaning in the Eye of the Beholder

Meaning in the Eye of the Beholder

Art By Viktoria Malliar

I am naturally an extrovert. I thrive around people, being social, being active, interacting and engaging with my surroundings and all that surrounds me!

I love to host, I love to bring people out of their shells, I love to be the first one on the dance floor, sharing my creativity and inspiring others to do the same. I love to hear what other people are passionate about –…

Time is a hard thing to grasp when living in the human now. Fate is not a linear concept, what is perfect for you on the whole might be hard to accept in the immediate now.

We want success, we want love, we want…

  Understand me. I am not like an ordinary world. I have my madness, I live in another dimension and I do not have time for things that have no soul.

Nutshell. Me. This.

Seriously though this…

Change With The Seasons

Change With The Seasons

Sunflower by Charmaine Olivia

With Monday came fall – though the stores would have one believe it’s time to herald in Christmas…I mean don’t get me wrong I love me some Christmas, but I also love me some Halloween.

I love the atmospheric resonance of all things fall. The rainy days, the crunchy leaves, the vibrant last burst of life reaching peek. I love the haunting mood that’s invoked with the…

This old post is one that I did back in 2016 on International Women’s Day. I was inspired by the artist’s (Daphne Oude Geerdink) own reason’s for making the piece –

    Very Few writer’s really know what they’re doing until they have done it.

If seeing is believing then for a writer being must be conceiving.
