About Me

Ink wants to know what makes your heart shudder.
She is a semi-professional photographer, a writing/reading addict, and interested in engaging the public in playful and creative ways. She is a news-addict, a tea junkie, a master of disguise, a jack of all trades, and a master of fun.  

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Cosmonauts, heretics, underwater basket weavers, Nobel prize winners, dreamers, monsters, writers, dadaists.
