Dark Roots...

After taking off from my radio program, Gypsy Poet Radio,
it will be back in January. I needed to take off for the Holidays
and get in touch with people I call family. Not just the blood, but
another brood that I talk to all the time. My group of friends who
believe in The Gypsy Poet. I'm not the conventional girl who does
things with an entourage or a posse--I work ALONE--and that's
the way I like it. I want to rely on myself. What do is I put my best
in everything--Glen Still, founder and producer of 10K Poets had asked
me to take over a show earlier in 2009 called Poets Dream In Color.
The man was in need of help, and I offered to step up to the plate and
give him my guts as well as my wit. He got that, and more--and probably
the best production work he ever saw from one person who ran the whole
thing. I now run a show for 10Kpoets called The English Pub which is an
online show devoted to callers who want to read their poetry, short stories
and other stuff on the air. (blogtalkradio.com/10KPoets is the link) AND--
That is MY creation, too. I did that for Glen as my gift to him and the rest
of the crew behind what I do. I talk about poets that I am currently studying for
my Master's in English. Thanks to me going back to school, my fan base is
growing rapidly--and I see some people taking some of my ideas. I'm flattered
by it because it shows how original my ideas are to begin with.

But I digress. Anyway, Gypsy Poet Radio will rock the airwaves in January.
At this time, I put everything on hold for family, however, I am working my ass
off at another thing. I was invited at UT for the Spring research conference here
in my town and I was put in 2 categories: Creative writing for my poetry book,
as well as my research for music and literature. The music and literature work is
for a class I am working to design to show folks how music and literature inspire
each other. The point: I'm busy putting my career and dreams together. The wit
of The Gypsy Poet (Which I created) got me pretty far at this point. Even most
of Hollywood is listening and is open to what I am up to. I like what I am seeing--
I love what I am doing...Watch, world--it's coming together--
Join me for the fun, the dance, and the life in the coming year ahead---
LOVE TO YOU ALL, MY READERS!

Warrior Woman...

Warrior Woman--
She is a warrior who knows how to make her own path beneath
her adversaries on the battlefield and she watches their every move.
She knows based on their moves exactly what do next.
She is always beneath the radar, and she is clever and abstract
and... known how to defeat her adversaries based on cheap shots
THEY make--

That is how she wins...

No man can get past her, no woman can defeat her...
Her daggers are always hidden and she knows just how to strike--
When those who expect it, least expect it...

She is quiet, she is unnoticeable--
She is the lady in the shadows, the woman in black--

She is the ultimate Warrior Woman...
