Teaching Artist, Dance and Written Word

Writing

My formal educational background is in journalism and writing, with an Honors Degree from Middle Tennessee State University and majors in both journalism and English. A current project which I was recently asked to “commandeer” as far as the editorial content is a new literary arts webzine, Nashville Skyline. Together with graphic designer Ernie Gray and five other writers, we choose a quarterly theme on which to focus our prose and poetry, with the additional slant to connect it to Nashville arts and/or culture. We also feature local photographers, visual artists and musicians.

Personal essay is the style I to which I am most drawn.  Here is a link to one of my most recent works in this area, “Body Language Ephemerals.”
