My Visual Bio
because a picture is worth a thousand words!
The "Alter Ego" BitZ
Prior to scribing, I spent the majority of my career as my Alter Ego, Taylor.
I am the Founder + Artistic Director of State of Grace, a Modern Dance + Arts company & ministry. My work has been presented at theaters, universities, museum/monumental sites, conferences, military bases, churches and synagogues in both the U.S. and abroad. My lengthier productions have been Docu-Dances: theatrical fusions that combined acting and/or narration with choreography to depict my original scripts based on historical events.
According to my dancers I seemed to possess an undeniable penchant for proving that old aphorism:
"What doesn't kill you makes you stronger!"
A Wee Solo for Your Viewing Pleasure
The Freelance BitZ
After many years in dance, where I consistently kept the "non" in nonprofit, I transitioned into to keeping the "free" into freelance. (Not on purpose—I just couldn't help myself. What can I say? I'm a good person.)
My freelance work has consisted of staging photoshoots for artists, creating branding + marketing content and website designs for start-ups, artists, nearly-weds and the nonprofit, Willing Warriors, an awesome organization that serves our wounded, ill, and disabled warriors in the greater Washington, DC area.
In my spare time, I'm polishing my book.

The What-I'm-Up-To-RIGHT-NOW BitZ
( hint: I've been Writing a Book )
I am currently editing, revising, and generally agonizing over my first book:
* Well-Behaved Women Rarely Meet Rolling Stones
It chronicles my early (and somewhat unhinged) years as a Mick Jagger-impersonating teen who stalked the Rolling Stones with my two BFFs while seeking the answer the all-too-familiar question . . .
*The working title of my manuscript
What's a nice girl like me
doing with a face
like Mick's???
This photo is a selfie I took of my reflection via my bathroom mirror.
(Circa 1976)
Alas, while savvier sixteen year old girls were fine-tuning their make-up application skills,
I was busy trying to look like Mick Jagger.
And possibly inventing the "Mirror Selfie".
I"m currently looking for an (adoring) agent who will find a publisher for my book.
(If that sounds like you, click HERE!)
And I continue to run around with my BFF, Sheila, on my lifelong quest to meet the Rolling Stones.
To quote Joss Whedon:
"No power in the 'verse can stop us."
