WELCOME:
I am a woman who refuses to be defined by roles, even though, at times, I’m a willing actor in many such roles. There is nothing I enjoy more than a great meal, good conversation with interesting friends, and quality time spent with family. However, I feed from the Mind of all that is and ever will be. In service to that god, I appoint myself the Authentic Imp! My blog is my way of utilizing my original poetry, flash fiction, memoir, creative essay, itsy bitsy insights, and the occasional rant, to say what I see in OUR world.
THANKS FOR ARCING OVER!
Please stop by again soon.
Authentic Imperfection 
Amen, Sister! Write on. 🙂
I can so easily lose myself, meandering quietly, in in the cool, dark pools of thought reverberating out from these words… i find your accompanying images are profound and touching…
I have always found in you a spirit sister, and i always find myself deeply glad at our brief meetings… even though our paths seem to take us on separate journeys, your words and impressions have always stayed with me…
I am so glad to find your reflections shared here
Thank you for your lovely words April. It is always nice when our paths cross. It is so good to see you here.
The poem you wrote, Percocet Pirouette Pantoum, is powerful. I have read all of your blogs and admire your courage in sharing yourself with us…thank you.
Thank you. Very much. And thank you for commenting Carolyn.

Wow! Really? Thank you very much Nicole, I’m so flattered! Wow, so, I’m just getting started here in the blogosphere. Just beginning to get to know a handful of bloggers, so I don’t know if I can come up with a long list but I will give it my best shot! Wow, BIG SMILE. Thank you so much!
You’re welcome! I came across your blog on The Blog Farm and checked it out here, too. I had no idea that you are as new to the blogosphere as I; it makes me happy to pass the award on to another newbie. Don’t worry about how many you include on your list – short is always simple and sweet. I wish you much success! 🙂
