"it's not the FAME, IT'S THE FLAME". I have been saying this for years.  I've traveled the world, me and my guitar, singing the songs I've written. I've always expressed myself better that way.

I don't like "Labels." I write all kinds of songs in all kinds of styles. I'm a Storyteller. I've been writing ever since I was a child. 

Here is an excerpt from one of my songs called:  

"CHORDS"

When I was a girl I was taught, like many daughters,
Deeper things were meant for men, be content in shallow waters
And like every girl who picks up a guitar,
I didn't fight my battles with swords, I used,

Chords, Chords, Chords that felt like colors
That danced with all the thoughts upon my mind,
Chords, all those feelings I discovered,
I set them free, one string at a time

And thoughts that I never could express,
Overtook my soul as though I was possessed...

"WHEN I FALL FROM THE VINE"

I'm a deep feeling soul I roll with a punch

When I fall from the vine I make wine when I'm crushed

And I'm touched by the Lord when my day meets the dusk

When I fall from the vine I make wine when I'm crushed

In deafening chatter and sweet solitude

I've learned many times that I'm not shatterproof

And I know I'll hit dirt till the day I am dust

When I fall from the vine I make wine when I'm crushed.
