Bio

I'm a weirdo nerd who’s extremely subversive. I like rocks, incense, and all kinds of witchy stuff. Intrusive rhyme bothers me.

I’m known as Dena Brown to the revenuers and pollsters.

MA English literature, College of Charleston

Rereading
I reread my favorite books, over and over again, for a very simple reason: I love the characters and enjoy spending time with them.

Bathoholic
I’ve been accused, confess it’s true: I like being in hot water, surrounded by my rocks, gods, goddesses, incense, glowing orbs, tiaras, crystal balls, and healing bowls.

Twinkle Toes

Burger (Part 6)
”Dude, are you okay? You look kinda pale.” Steve put the wrench down and looked up at me.”Why don’t you go downstairs and get a coke or something? Maybe get the kitchen to make you something to eat.”

Surreal Musing
Remember when the trees started singing, and the stars danced, and we became the sky? The Milky Way sparkled through my hair, comet light and stardust clinging to your fingers, getting under your nails when you kissed me.
