Why I Dyed My Hair Red: Poetry Chapbook, 2004

In 2003, I and about seven other local poets read aloud their original spoken word poetry on a CD published by the editors of Wright State University’s Nexus literary magazine, entitled: Rhythm & Movement Volume 1.  Listen to me reading “I Am Woman” and “Gratitude,” in Dayton, Ohio, a year before I graduated with my bachelor’s degree in English – creative writing.  To enjoy the audio, click on the links below:
