Noticing Newbies

Hi everyone,
I’m new to the community, though I’ve already been touched by the rave reviews some of my early pieces have received here.
I’ve spent my life as a poet and songwriter, navigating the world through rhythm and rhyme. For me, writing isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way to capture the raw truths of the soul and the pulse of the human heart. I believe in the integrity of the individual voice and the power of words that come from a place of lived experience.
In a world increasingly focused on algorithms, I’m here to stand up for the "human" in the craft. I write to connect, to reflect, and to stay true to the stories only a human heart can tell.
I’m looking forward to diving deeper into this community and connecting with others who value authenticity above all else.
See you in the stacks,
