About Me

Who am I? A very difficult question to answer at any time but I will try to answer it in the broad general way it is meant on this occasion. I am Jai D. I am a seeker, an empath, a bard and a child of creation, a writer, a giggler, a crazy loony toon. I'm a Belly Dancer...isn't that cool! I am a bard, a creative spirit. I live to write regardless if I ever get published. (although of course I hope that I will). I write poetry, songs (alas I have not the skill to put them to music), short stories and novels. I have a number of novels underway all of which I hope to get finished and published. I love to read for pleasure and for knowledge. All reading aids me as a writer. My favourite authors at the moment are Robert Holdstock, Clive Barker, Caiseal Mor, Stephen King, Michael Clynes and Isobelle Carmody. This list of course changes from week to week as I read more. I also spend much time researching topics and information for my own writing.God I sound like a weirdo. I am me I am here and I want to know you ;) Be young be free don't think just be

My Interests

Writing poetry short stories and novels, reading for pleasure and for knowledge, working on our property, exploring around New Zealand especially around Northland where we are looking to move, Belly dancing (and any other form of dancing), listening to music and singing along even if I'm slightly off key, meditating, socialising, making jewellery and wreaths, topics of interest that I am researching at the moment *Ancient Celtic New Zealand, *MacNeil & O'Neil history, alernative Biblical history, *Grail lore and legend, *Ancient Egypt *Atlantis, *Herbology, Druidry, Celtic History
