I write dark fantasy. I use my nursing knowledge to help out fellow writers with medical, infant, child, and women's health issues. I am blunt and occasionally foul-mouthed. If you knew me in person, you'd never guess any of that stuff.

Freedom Man





His likeness stands witness
To the lingering ghost of life lost
He marches through the mirror of time
A reminder of that highest cost
He wades through paddy, marsh, and field
On legs turned to steel and stone
A monument to those laid low
Who once were flesh and bone

Having paid freedoms fare
For his children, for our land
Now his likeness stands before us
That we may understand

The Price of Freedom
