Fade In:
Successfully titled an internationally exhibited artist currently working on my first photographic art book titled, Cemeteries of Texas: A Haunting Look at Hidden Art of the Lone Star State. I am also a new author having finished my first in a series of vampire cross-genre, Sweet Lucidity, and now working on the second, Dragonfly. As with all new authors, I am having to find my way through the chaos of finding an agent, and that looks to be finally coming to an end after much patience and learning along the way. I would not be living the life of a hopeless dreamer if I did not have another distraction from an overactive imagination, that being a graphic novel adapted from one of my screenplays, Buie Park.Â

On a personal note, I am a mother to an 18 year-old dreamer, living in West Texas on a few dozen acres of land over the flat south plains. I attend Texas Tech University, successfully majoring in every study I find interesting. Once I graduate, it will be with a degree in art history, with an emphasis on early modern art (mostly sculptural to tie in with my fascination of studying funeral art). I share a large home with a spoiled chipoo named Molly, and a parakeet named Ada or "Black Widow" to her prior mates. I battle multiple sclerosis, a progressive enemy, but at times a charitable muse. My hobbies include being a complete book nerd, film geek, ancestry buff, world traveler and wannabe bakery owner. My Jewish faith is reformed, but no less strong than that of my ancestors. I believe everyone has a story to tell, their lives all fit to be read from the pages of a novel. This life I am living to the fullest, always being true to myself and reaching for the stars wanting to learn all I can, experience all life has to offer, never saying I can't. It is after all, my biography, my biopic, my life.

Something about this photo...I couldn't take my eyes off the thumbnail, and HAD to see the full-size image. If this doesn't touch your heart, check for a pulse! Thank you for the wonderful photograph.
