Woman Reclining explores many facets of life that we experience every day. The poems inside cover topics that all of us can relate to whether it's the love we share towards one another, or the compassion towards an animal companion. My poetry teaches human values, whether I write about war or the spirituality that guides me and others each and every day.As an artist I study my art and write about it, and I write about art created by others. I find that expressing myself as a poet when I write about their work deeply challenges me, and pushes me to work hard to write compelling literature. For example, one of my award winning pieces, "Woman Reclining" was inspired by Donna Jackson's art through Artists Among Us 2005. She and numerous other artists enabled me to craft many poems about the human condition.I began my poetic journey as a high-school sophomore in New Milford High School in Connecticut many years ago. I find that writing defines my life and poetry gives me the ability to write creatively. I encourage you to read my book of poetry and find a piece of yourself in Woman Reclining.Writing My Book of Poetry is available on Amazon.com's shorts page.

This is a book about a simple everyday business test - a Disaster Recovery (DR) Drill or at least it was supposed to be simple. Instead, it became a multi-day, chilling voyage through unexpected twists, horror filled events and bizarre adventures for a woman that is somehow strangely connected to the past of a building and a town she has never seen or heard of in her life. Sandy Williams is just an ordinary woman on an ordinary business trip. From the moment she enters the building where she is to spend the next few days, it calls to her, it haunts her and it spreads fear into every corner of her body. She begins to question what's real and what's not and finally has to question her own history, sanity and destiny. Sandy ultimately realizes she has been sent to this place at this time by some unknown force and for some unknown reason. Whatever it is, she must discover it before something happens that pulls her into a world where she can never return.
