I've been writing poetry for 25 years, and have been published in numerous literary journals. I completed an MA in Writing at Johns Hopkins University in 2010. My three recent books are From Darkness to Embracing the Light by pen name Mariel Gordon and Fluttering on Earth, published by Balboa Press. I love to swim, travel, go to independent film when I'm not working or writing.
Background
Information
I began writing after taking a "Creative Writing" course in the 90's. I've been influenced by all my teachers.I have a doctorate in social psychology and have taken on the task to provide imagery which reflects an emotional state. Although much of my earlier work is confessional and autobiographical, my later work is imagistic, spiritual and contains many images of nature. I have written a great deal in form since 2008. I have two additional books. I have written a self help book about healing from toxic relationships, which includes memoir, poetry and spiritual healing practices. The book has been published under a pen name Mariel Gordon. You can see it here:
I have been published in over 50 literary magazines, including WordWrights, a now defunct D.C. based literary magazine through which my three chapbooks have been published. I have over 1.3 millions readers on Quora with regard to healing from narcissistic relationships.
Additional Information
I have an publication in the "Great American Poetry Show" out of West Hollywood of "Regale Us." In addition, I have 6 poems in the last three issues of the Federal Poet, and will be published in the forthcoming Gunpowder Review.
During 2020 and 2021 I have been in the top 100 in abuse and mental and spiritual healing on Amazon, as well as top 100,000 of all Amazon books. Healing from narcissistic or other types of abuse is something that many people are interested in.
