As a writer, I have many back burners filled with projects in process. Some have been cooking for over 20 years. I have learned to honor this process. While I have been given good intuitive skills and facility as a writer, I am humbled by the reality that I have to wait for inspiration to present itself and then run to my computer or journal before the thoughts vacate my brain.

Writing comes very easily to me. I have the sense of getting out of the way and allowing words to flow through me. I don't have any great orderly process of creating outlines or laying out the structure of what I am to write. I simply sit down and write and go through the organic process of pieces revealing themselves. Completing a piece of work, whether poem or book, is cathartic and exhilarating for me.

Writing my first book was easy. Publishing it could be the subject of another book. I learned many painful lessons along the way, but none that will stop me from publishing more. Writing is not negotiable for me - it is something I simply must do.

I don't write many poems, but click here to read my favorite.
