Angela C. Rogers

I am a writer of short stories and poetry. My writing is based on my own and other's life experiences that I have either seen, heard, or read about. A lot of my writings are dark, the reason being that I must "feel" very deeply about something before I can write about it. I noticed at a very young age that I had a gift for expressing what the soul aches to sing out but has no voice to do. So.. I sit down and let the words flow from my soul through my fingertips. I love collaboration = writing back and forth with other poets to form one poem. It is very rare for me to find another poet to do this with, because I must be able to "feel" the words in order to do so. However, from the few that I have been able to do this with, the experience was so rewarding. I could not imagine not being able to write - it is like breathing to me. I have had several pieces published, however, this is not my reason for writing.
