Hi Jessa,
The Anais Nin quote at the top of your weblog is exquisite! And I like the deep plum colors new to your site. I'm looking forward to your new writings. peace!
dear lisa,
thank you...but i have since realized that the quote was mis-referenced in the place where i found it. turns out it is not anais nin but dawna markova.
so, that has been corrected.
here is markova's website if you are interested:
