For those who are interested, I also maintain a creative writing blog called “The Rose”, which I established in 2007. The blog features many of my poetry and short stories, as well as writing tips, called “Ad-Libs”, for those seeking to write more creatively. As much as I have been published for my journalism, I have also been published several times for my poetry. In fact, this is where much of my interest in journalism began.
To visit the site, go to thewriteaholic.com. And, as always, write like a rose.

Hi Jessika. Did you write the poem that starts “When I grow old, really old,
I shall be eccentrik.
I shall wear long silken skirts
that sweep in the dust
and keep Abyssinian cats.” please?
I first saw it many years ago, you weren’t credited for it. I kept it and I still love it as much now as I did the first time I saw it xx

Hi, I did not write this. Glad you appreciate a good poem, though!
