I like my tea black (with a special love for Indian chai) and my novels long (give me sci-fi, fantasy, or 19th century to make me especially happy!)—though I’m always exploring beyond my known universe and will drink greens, reds, and oolongs, and read almost any genre or style that crosses my table. Speaking of the universe, I have a passion for learning about anything from black holes to the mysteries of time. When I’m not sitting by the window, sharing the sun with our little lemon tree, I can be found making lemon cupcakes and other confections, creating art (pen and ink, intaglio, and Prismacolors, please) or moving through the world on the toes of ballet or jazz dance.

You would cry too…
Except I’m not crying. I’m so glad to see you today, Poet.

I can tell your cartoonist spent a hard day’s night, working in the coal mine, back of the neck getting dirty and gritty, but that she is definitely the leader of the pack.

So many ways to find inspiration. 🙂 So glad to see another.
(Hey, that second-to-last frame—I look and sound like that sometimes.)

Sara, honey. Just so you know. Yes, I have been plagued all day by these annoying songs 🙂 Good thing I haven’t been trying to write poetry 😉
