About Me
I've been writing ever since I can remember...my first poem was published at the age of 7 in my local newspaper about a caterpillar. Although I still write about the natural world, I have expanded my rpertoire over the years, lol. I now write mythological, metaphysical, spiritual poetry, often about love, loss, the occult, death...my interests are very eclectic and this is often obvious in my works.
I currently have 3 poetry collections available - Fluidity of Creation, Immortality Lives..., & Burning Constellations. I am considering putting together another collection soon, but I have to make time in my already overflowing life. My poetry has appeared in Pentacle Magazine in the UK, Skyline Magazine in the US, on my own poetry site (Dena's Poetry: Poetry of Love, Loss, & the Occult) and is posted all over the web in various places (most of it without my permission, but it's difficult to control the beast of the internet, lol). I have worked as a columnist for a few newspapers in Michigan in my teens and at University and am published in my professional field (Karmic Astrology) in both the UK and Australia. I have several romance, supernatural, historic fiction novels in various states of completion but doubt I will shop them around any longer or finish the ones that are not complete...I have lost much of my interest in fiction over the past few years. If I write another book (other than poetry) in the future, it will likely be on Astrology, Metaphysics, Spirituality, Health, Travel, or memoirs.
I am an Intuitive Evolutionary Astrologer, Tarot Reader, Metaphysician, Spiritual consultant, mother, lover, multiple business owner...many things. An avid traveler, I am inspired by the places I have visited and the places I long to visit...as a poet, I see the beauty in the smallest things...in the darkest things, and I embrace the darkness in the world. Without the dark, we simply can't appreciate the light.
I am always deep in the process of growth so the woman you know today will be even richer in spirit come tomorrow :)
