cut many ways.
I've been called a magician with words. I'll take it.
Maybe it's because my day job as a writer involves using words like magic to get people to buy stuff. Or because I literally know magic and have something more to say than ta-dah.
My work is a fusion of poetry and wizardry. It's tearing up my daughter's painting of a heart and putting it back together in a poem about our family splitting up. It's making your money teleport under a wine glass in a story where time flies. Sometimes, it's just me in front of a mic with the courage to speak up.
This was once my full-time gig. I've performed for audiences from South Florida to the Philippines, won awards at magic competitions, and founded a traveling troupe of magicians called the House of Flying Cards. My words have appeared everywhere, from magazine stories and poetry collections to billboards and bar menus. But I'm not in it for personal glory.
Long ago, the Samurai used their swords to serve a greater purpose. So my resolve is razor-sharp: I serve wonder to others. Your joy is my reward.
Peacefully,
