Am I doing it?
Sometimes the simplest of endeavors fulfill the deepest life-long yearnings.
I’ve wanted to start a blog for quite some time.
I’m a writer - something I never fully admitted until the past several years.
I’m an artist - through the medium of words, facial expressions, vocal inflections, & spunk.
My biggest impediment to starting a blog was never the writing itself - it was the tedious technology. People craft websites all the time, yet somehow the world of (even simple) web development left me flustered to the point of giving up. I’ve owned this domain for years, and I finally sat myself down and created a basic, no frills blog to host my work.
Starting out, this site will serve as a space to host my poetry, in addition to what’s posted on Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. In the future, I hope to share longer articles, email newsletters, and the like.
What you’ll find
On each page of the Poetry section, you’ll find a video of the poem performed as spoken word, and below it, its text transcription. But the juicy stuff is at the bottom: a Power Move for you to put into place based on the theme of the poem.
My hope with sharing these words is not only to express myself, but to inspire others to do the same. To empower others to feel safe broadcasting their most natural, alive, silliest, happiest selves.
If you do engage with the prompts and exercises, it would be nothing but a delight for me to hear your feedback! So please share :)
