I'm a 30-something woman who frankly just loves to write. Although I tend to write mostly poetry, I have been known to crank out a short story here and there.

Some of my favorite poets and authors can be found under the Poetry I.V. label.
I dabble in photography and hope to take a few classes--one day. :o) I absolutely love the show "So You Think You Can Dance." While it is quite cheesey from time to time, every season there are at least three or four routines that bring me to tears. If you are curious, here is a link to one of my favorite routines that inspired me to write a poem called "Grip."

I still enjoy sports from time to time. Basketball is my favorite to both play and watch, but occassionally I can be led to a baseball game or play around on a softball field. Hiking--always fun, especially in autumn! Hoping to get back into cycling this year. One thing that most of my friends would slap me for--I loathe football! There is just something about a bunch of meatheads smashing into each other that scrapes me wrong.
