Cosplaying as a One Woman Army: Black Widow Edition Part 1

I have been a fan for as long as I can remember.  No, I am not a folded sheet of paper that can be moved back and forth to produce small breezes nor am I am electronic construction whose blades spin quickly to help a flow of cool air manifest in a room.  I am a fan… Continue reading Cosplaying as a One Woman Army: Black Widow Edition Part 1

Remind Me Who I Am

Who are you? What are you made of?

Doubt

Sometimes it doesn’t matter what you know in your heart of hearts, doubt still finds a way to creep into your castle of strength and creativity.  You are always your harshest critic.  I know this all too well.
