"Poetry isn't a profession, it's a way of life. It's an empty basket; you put your life into it and make something out of that."

- Creative Adventurer: I'm a writer who can often be found in cafes at odd hours with a latte and a laptop (during the pandemic my living room replaces the cafe), or with pen and paper in the car between gigs (alone time in the car still happens, the in-person gigs are on hold). I'm a sign language interpreter whose passion is performance interpreting, which integrates years of theatrical experience, creativity, and interpreting (all of which is virtual during the pandemic). I am also a writing facilitator and peer editor, performance interpreting mentor, and performance & literary event interpreting coordinator. * Responsible * Ethical *. Experienced *

Well, I like that. But I think in order to be a successful poet, you have to cut out your heart and put it in the basket. I still haven't done that. But I'm closer than ten years ago.
