What does poetry mean to you?


It is passion put to words. Making emotions and concepts tangible by creating imagery.



What inspires your poetry?


Life, experiences, music. Music is a big one. A title or lyric can spark a poem. Even dialogue in movies can inspire me. My muse. He is someone incredibly special and usually behind most of my lines.


Which are most important to you: (1) joy, (2) peace, (3) patience, (4) kindness, (5) self-control, (6) faithfulness, (7) gentleness, (8) love, or (9) goodness? If you can, explain why.


I think all of them are important in different ways. We are complex beings and rarely is anything black or white. We live in a world of gray area. So each of those holds a place in building who we are. Or even a lack of them creates who we are.

What sort of things are you looking forward to improving this year?


My writing for sure. I have issues with time management so setting deadlines and actually meeting them would be a huge improvement. Lol.

What is one big dream you have?


To be published. Even if only one person buys my book, I will still have done it. I'd also like to try my hand at lyrics.
