As a Multidisciplinary Artist and single mom, time has had to become fluid for me in order to create. My latest works consist of images capturing moments in my life along with prose concerning homelessness, The Patriarchy, living as a gender-fluid person in the 80s and 90s in DC and Baltimore, and the characters that come along with that life. I am actively seeking publishers interested in such works, and galleries and pop-ups that may be interested in said subject matter. Corporate sponsorships are also, of course, welcomed and appreciated.
I am the author of 34 books with a variety of traditional publishers, and have self-published 3 books for writers. My byline has appeared in major publications all across the U.S., and I have written articles for over 200 websites.
In 2002 I launched "I Love To Write Day" as a grassroots campaign to have people of all ages spend time writing every November 15th. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of ILTWD I published the "I Love To Write Day Creative Writing Journal." It's still available on Amazon.

I serve as a church musician (pianist, drums) for over 40 years, with a playing style mix of traditional gospel/smooth jazz.
As a DJ, my music of choice is Smooth Jazz and Black (traditional and contemporary). I love DJing for professional office/organizational events, providing sound and mics with a little smooth jazz in the background and between talking sessions/presentations.
