March heralds in Spring and its air of possibilities, rebirth, and fresh dreams.
What’s your favorite thing about Spring?I love when the flowers and trees start blooming.  I live in Georgia, and we have lovely dogwood and magnolia trees.
What’s a must-have for Spring?Chap stick and moisturizer.  The season change over makes for some really dry skin for me, and chap stick and moisturizer are necessities. 
Spring cleaning. A must or a bust?It’s a must for us.  I’m a pack rat and after a while, even I get tired of clutter.  We’ve actually started doing ‘Spring Cleaning’ once a month so that it isn’t so overwhelming.
Where do you like to write during the season?I love to sit under the trees and listen to nature. 
Any fun trips planned?Unfortunately, not right now, but soon.  Oh very soon…I’m trying to talk the husband into a trip to Disney World.  Or Washington DC.  I’d love to see the cherry trees in bloom.

The Goddess: a female deity who represents strength, love, dignity, sexuality, motherhood, wrath, peace, the elements, and so much more. She is the symbol of every woman who has ever been or will ever come to be. She comes from a myriad of places and beliefs, her image always changing, but her presence always there. In this collection of fourteen beautifully written stories and three lovely original artworks, the Goddess rises in many unique forms to remind the world of the strength and beauty that is woman and the connection she has with all things.
