Author has written 21 stories for Life, Religion, Biography, General, War, Love, and Friendship. בס"ד "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" -Patrick Henry "אם תרצו, אין זו אגדה" "If you will it, it is no dream." -Theodore Herzl Hello, שלום. I'm a woman, I'm short, I like words. My favorite parts of writing are semicolons (they add a flavor to writing that is not quite unlike white pepper) and word connotations. Renegade is, to me, the most resonant English word. I'm afraid to share my writing. I'm shy, you see? Much of what I write (poetry-wise, anyway) is Jewish- I'm not trying to impose my beliefs on anyone, or even publicize them- because my religion is the core of my life. I know I write angsty things. I'm too afraid to say them out loud, I think. Some things deserve to be whispered. My mantra: To find G-d in pain. My mission statement: Enough. I'm a poetry kind of gal, but I like stories too. Someday I'll write one. I speak English, עברית, and HTML. Hey, whoever happens to be reading this: review. Please. I'd really, honestly appreciate some input. I pledge to review every chapter that I read. I pledge to look at, and review, the writing of those who review mine. Fair? | |||||||
