Autorenporträt
I am a Writer, a Poet, a Spoken Word Artist, a Blogger and Self-Publishing Author. I also consider myself to be a socially aware Black Woman, and my work is mostly a reflection of who I am and my experiences. I truly love being able to write and share my work, and I have been drawn to the art of writing since I was a child. Although I did not always give writing the attention it deserved, writing has become my chosen form of self-expression. And the writing style of poetry has been such a blessing for me because it has allowed me to connect with people on a deeper level.
