On hiatus from work dealing with this little thing called cancer. Much fumbling around in the dark followed by channeling of Ripley. Presently in Warrior mode.
Before this illness I would rhyme off a bunch of things to describe myself like lover of live music, writing, craft beer, blah, blah, blah. Who really cares? I'll just cut to the chase...
After a short time filled with much trepidation and fear, am happy to report that I'm back to ' glass half full'. This illness has shown me loyalty to no ends, compassion with no bounds, and all those little messages sent to me have turned out to be my lifeline. This is my bio. ♥ Love to all.

I love to write and also started a new blog on blogger. It is an inspiration and motivation. Sometimes it's best to share it here rather than with those around you who have yet to understand you.

I am a bit insane in the head and love who I am no matter what anybody thinks. Writing is my past...present...and future...

I'm a published author, who writes about social issues that youth struggle with, such as foster care, sexual identity.

Finding time to write has been tough, but it's too ingrained to stop now. The problem is going back to finish works I started three years ago while the shiny new thing jumps up and down and screams my name.
Anyway, I may not finish all of what I start to write, but I'm going to have fun trying. Thanks for stopping by, reading my stories and poems, and (maybe) leaving a comment (or TWO). Blessings all ways.

I am an Irish writer and lecturer living in London who had my first work of fiction published in 2014. 'The Charlton Men', the first part of a trilogy set in South London, combines literary fiction with a love of football. Set in the historic surrounds of Greenwich and Charlton, the novel interweaves the rich heritage of the area's past with contemporary themes of social disenfranchisement and a search for meaning.

The book has done well so far in terms of sales and publicity but I am always keen to attract new readers. This platform is a showcase of some of my work, which I would rather share for free than sell on Kindle for example. I write not for profit but because of a love of stories and language, something that I have had all my life, from as early as I can remember.

Outside of writing and teaching I am interested in travel, music, film, football, craft beer, and photography. I also write articles for blogs, newspapers, and academic journals.

I'm 15 with plenty of dreams.

I'm here.

I am the invisible girl, no one notices me unless I elbow them in the ribs. The annoying thing about this is that i want to be a performer. I need people to notice me, I need to stand out. At school if i do stand out in any way people shoot me down for it, even when its a good thing. So that's my life..

I took a class at USF that taught me that the original purpose of the Artist was to be the medicine man / woman of the tribe. That their purpose was to lead the tribe through the many seasons of life with wisdom and compassion and a prayerful ear on God. We were the ones in the back of the cave painting pictures on the walls and inspiring the tribe forward toward the hunt.

Many modern day Artists have become made to use their talents to paint/photograph pictures of toothpaste and automobiles in order to get the tribe to want the things that the world wants to sell. Some artists are very good craftsmen and create lovely things to buy. It is the rare One who is still the medicine man and I learned in that class that I am that rare one. Not everyone in that class or even many previous classes was declared to be the true Artist. I WAS signalled out and acknowledged by my Professor and the entire class.

It is not enough to carry within you the potential to be who you are. You must have the courage to actually Be It.

I am there Now and Today.

I hope I do what I am supposed to do and to say and convey what I need to; so that I fulfill my duties here on this earth.

I will try with all of my heart and I will pray that it will be of some good to some one.

thank you for reading this far
