Hello everyone!
A few weeks ago, I shared some background about me and how I came to create Auroras & Blossoms.
Today, let me tell you about a few publishing victories that happened during the first years of my career. They are especially important, because they helped build my self-confidence as an emerging artist.
I will start with my first-ever publishing credits: The Stellar Showcase Journal. My poetry appeared in Volume 1, Issue 2 (Fall 2006) and Volume 1, Issue 3 (Winter 2006-2007).
The magazine no longer exists, but I kept the copies I received in the mail. My poems are below.


A few years later, I had the honor of being part of the wonderful Into the Desert Exhibit, organized by eight cuts. “Grains of Sand,” the ekphrastic poem featured in the exhibit, remains one of my favorites to this day.

Costco Connection (Canada) ran a short article on my work as a professional blogger for its July - August 2015 edition. The issue is no longer available, but I kept a screenshot of the paper copy I have.
This article is one of the highlights of my 10-year stint as a social media coach.
In 2017, I notched a major interview on the website Life Pixel. It was also my first paid interview!

Later that year, five photos of mine were selected to appear in the second issue of Art Muzeo Magazine.

That’s it for today!
