"It was all very well to say 'Drink me,' but the wise little Alice was not going to do that in a hurry. 'No, I’ll look first,' she said, 'and see whether it’s marked ‘poison’ or not.'" —Chapter 1, Down the Rabbit-Hole #shroomin #oregon #secretspot (at Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHB9A13poj3/?igshid=arb3pwb7iywa

Dream a little dream...

Dream a little dream…

I dreamed of being a writer as a kid. I guess I’ve succeeded, thanks to lots of support from family, friends, teachers, and publishers along the way. These images are of my first book of poetry, “published” when I was 9 years old. I scored a blue ribbon and lunch with an author.

I hope my poetry has improved since then, but my passion for language and writing hasn’t waned.

Thank you to…
