WRITER & PEN PAL SEEKER

Selma, 2023

Hi, I'm Selma--welcome to my corner on the web. Here, you'll find poetry that speaks to the heart, short stories--fiction, creative non-fiction--to inspire & encourage you, and book reviews.
I appreciate the ordinary things in life: reading, laughing, gardening, friendship, and learning. And I have this thing about wanting to be pen pals with you. What say you?
