By nature, I am both a historical writer (with a feminist streak) and a poet. As you've made it this far in the wide collection of fictionpress profiles, I do hope you'll take a few more moments of your time to review some of the works I have posted here. While there are quite a few old pieces of poetry here - there are also quite a few new ones. Below, you will find a list that highlights some of the more worthier pieces of art in order to make your browsing a bit more efficient and tasteful. However, do not feel that you must limit yourself to the pieces listed below. Recently, I have adopted a review-return policy, which involves a return review on one of your pieces in exchange for the review you left on my work. Also, I encourage anyone who is so inclined to drop me an email. I love to be in correspondence with other writers and look forward to hearing from you. Cheers, - Ellie .stories.
