The Admonishments of Kherishdar
Here we are then! Fancy website journey depicting a meeting with William Blake in modern day? How about a corrupted version of Virgil's Aeneid, written while I was translating that fine piece of literature in high school? Urban photography and accompanying flash fiction? You'll never know what you'll find, but the experience will change each month. Enjoy!

Behold: Apocalypse by Imagination!
In college, a professor asked us what would happen if William Blake were to live in the modern day and then asked us to build a creative project around that imagined scenario. (This was a project very much inspired by Jim Jarmusch's Dead Man.) Click on the above link to see what I came up with.

Impudence to the Highest: Book V of the Aeneid
We spent a very long time in high school translating Virgil's Aeneid. This did a few things for me: improved my understanding of Latin, ensured that any future mention of Book IV would elicit groans, and inspired me to write snarky interpretations of a couple of the books when the teacher offered extra credit for us doing the initial reading in Latin and writing summaries of the events depicted. With a small wince, I share here the results.

Excitement: Tales from the Wishing Well debuts!
In July 2008, I asked readers of my Livejournal to give me word prompts inspired by letters of the alphabet. With this set of 26 words, I am creating 26 works of art: either stories, poems, essays, or creative nonfiction sometimes accompanied by photography or handmade jewelry. You can read along either by watching my Livejournal or viewing the Tales from the Wishing Well webpage.
