poetica on HubPages

I am a 35 year old woman who is in love with the written word.  I have always believed that life is not about finding yourself.  It's about creating yourself.  Writing has helped me do just that!  My main interests are in the areas of:  poetry, article writing, short stories, lyric writing and advice columns for web-based magazines.  Currently, I am "toying" with the idea of writing my first novel but it's merely just a thought for the moment.

I am an individual who prides herself on her faults and imperfections; as they are the truest measure of any human being.  For it is only through hardships that your soul truly shines.

My dream is a simple one:  To both encourage and inspire others with the words I write.  As I would love "writing" to be my "full-time gig" someday soon.  Making a living for what I create would truly be my dream come true!

I hope you enjoy my expressions....
