Welcome to my thoughts,feelings and experiences for 2011
Always remember
"We all die the goal is not to live forever, but to create something that will"
2011 has been an adventure!
First I want to thank ERZULIE for helping my dreams come true I honor her everyday along with my "Teflon Sisters bond"-
I have been busy writing my Novella with POPS
" Bereavement Louisiana Socialite" which has been fun ,very challenging and very exciting!!!
Plus I have a new music project-
(after an 8 year hiatus)
"THE WITCHES TITTIES"
with Jen Gaye, Amber, Rio,
Neil Rogers and Xtina B
with backups by our "hype witches" Dustin Curtis and POPS
Teflon Sisters zine must also continue in 2012
I want to give alot of thanks and gratitude to DAMEBUILDER
and my tarot queen SCARLET FOUNDRY TAROT guru XTINA
and my BFF since 1986 KAREN
for sharing the magic of New Orleans to me it has changed my soul forever more....
