Profile Information
- Who I am:
- I'm an aspiring writer still intent on developing my personal writing voice and on indentifying what forms/genres I want to focus my own literary expressions. I have recently discovered and have become enamored with Creative or Literary NonFiction. I am also exploring and considering Writing for Magazines but also enjoy the Fiction Writers process of storytelling and character development. So, where to begin?
In this journey of mine, my explorations have led me to the Blog where I have been enjoying some real fine work and have decided that I will start one of my own as I continue to explore the above, share with others what I find, and stretch my writing muscle.

- N/A
- Media outlets that I currently write for:
- I am working on a literary blog entitled "Literary Musings, Contemplating all things Literary" that I will be opening to the public later in 2011. Like the title indicates, I will be touching on all topics of a literary nature, whether it be featuring various pieces of work ( novels, essays, short stories, poems) that I have read and want to share or promote, featuring and interviewing authors, highlighting literary communities (such as SheWrites) and/or websites or blogs of a literary nature that are of interest as a reader or a writer. I may be including my own original work as the blog develops.
- My writing is:
- Nonfiction, Blog Posts, Lit Crit
- Outlets where I review books, TV, or film:
- Books
- Services I offer to other writers:
- I am interested in reading new books to be featured on my upcoming blog to be released later in 2011.
