No, it is not Saturday, but I have some exciting news to share. Our second Being a Woman poetry collection is now available! Wait, there’s more … the first collection, Being a Woman – Overcoming is now available as an eBook. I have been busy creating options for your woman-poetry-reading-palette.

Clicking on the poem will take you to the book and the “Look Inside” feature*.
The second collection, Being a Woman – Becoming, is an empowered collection of poems that highlight the ability of women to persevere and achieve. This collection also includes three poems that have historical reference that are timely and relevant. I hope you enjoy a preview of that collection, my poem, “Day Break” and the illustrator’s interpretation of that poem. Additional previews are available on the “Look Inside” feature.

Clicking on the image will take you to the eBook and the “Look Inside” feature*.
The eBook edition of Being a Woman – Overcoming, the first collection, includes original drawings from the paperback edition (formatted for an e-reader), although the paperback version does have additional artistic elements.
*If not seeing the “Look Inside” feature, try searching from a PC, vs. a phone.

Thank you for stopping by and learning about, what I call, our “Pandemic Project.” Working long-distance with my artist daughter has been a blessing and at times challenging given our distance, but I am so proud of our collaborative work and we are both excited to share! When I see her in a few weeks, we are going to take an updated photo (this one is four-years old). 😆 She (puts up with) loves me.😉
I love what you both are creating! Congrats to you both, and thank you for giving us all something to smile about during this crazy, crazy time!

Michele, i love these wonderful drawings. They are so beautiful to me because they are life-affirming.
In a few sweeping strokes, a beauty is shown that all women can participate in.
The drawings go wonderfully with the poems shown here.
