For the Love of Words

About the Book

This first solo book 'For The Love Of Words. A Book of Poetry and Short Stories' is a collection Of various emotional poetry and short stories. The poetry you'll read here are of personal connection that I have myself experienced. These are of wonder, heartache and loss. Others are of various emotions of situations people encounter throughout their lives, dark poetry, humor, parenthood, and such. I do hope that the reader can find some connection in my poetry and short stories as a form of relation, understanding, laughter and healing.

About the Author

I am from Brooklyn, NY and am currently living in Upstate NY with my three sons. I have been writing poetry and short stories since I was a young girl. It became a passion for me the first time I read poetry by the famous Pablo Neruda. This "love of words" continued throughout my schooling and even now. I have been published and my work has a growing following in various poetry forums which I only hope will continue to blossom. I hope to continue on subsequent books to follow as this has been one of my biggest dreams to become a published solo as a writer. I also enjoy landscape and candid photography, various forms of art and singing. I enjoy continuously learning and reading books by authors I favor and new authors alike. On February 17, 2012 I was interviewed by Tarringo T. Vaughan of The Flex Writers Cafe of Poetry, also known as The Flex (http://flexwriterblogsonline.net), for an article in Cafe Chat for an exclusive article about my work. This was my first interview and was of big significance for acknowledgement for years of writing.
