I am in my writing era

Truth be told I have always been a writer but I never shared that part of me online. I used to have a ‘livejournal’ full of poetry under a secret handle that is lost in the abyss of the world wide web. I stood in front of my entire elementary school for a speech competition and read my poetry, twice. I have done spoken word a hand full of times and it fills me up with purpose. I am a writer. I may not be a very good one but that’s because I haven’t focused on this craft the way I focused on making tattoos. This is why I am taking a step back from tattooing. It is time I start writing more, it is time I start sharing. And if you ever spent time with me you know that I have so much to say.

I started writing a book back in 2020 and since 2021 it has been collecting dust. I am going to finish that book and the moment I finish it I will write another. My first book is about my tattoo career and how I ended up in tattooing in the Caribbean. I touch on how that dream unraveled during the beginning of 2020 and the the effect that the pandy took on my mental health.

My second book will be about my dating life. It will be a love story for all the single women who are 30 somethings and childless trying to navigate this fucked up dating world as a independent woman. I could write a trilogy on this. All of my stories will be true. All the names of people will be changed. Your girl doesn’t want to be sued.

I am a writer and I am manifesting this career into my life. Because as you all know I believe in the woo but I also believe in hard work. I love the idea of waking up early, making coffee, sitting down at my computer and typing away in silence, or with a bit of lo-fi hip hop to keep me company. I believe in myself. I believe I have a lot to say and I believe you will be entertained. Thank you for being a part of this journey. Here we go..
