The ability of writers to imagine what is not the self, to familiarize the strange and mystify the familiar, is the test of their power.  – Toni Morrison

I love to write. I have a small business called Longridge Editors LLC, and every now and then I manage to write an essay or a story when I am not helping others. The photo on the home page is from a meme I created for my blog. I’d love to have your photo in the project: Esse Diem bloG book meme

I am a degree candidate for a Masters in Fine Arts (MFA) at WV Wesleyan College. My concentration is in creative nonfiction. In my personal writing I tend to write about spirituality, the natural world, and where they intersect. In 2013 I became a professional writer for Charleston Newspapers with a focus on Features.
