    I like to write poetry. I'm including a poem that I wrote and the art/design with it. I hope it works cause I haven't tried posting pics yet. :) This piece I wrote while I was 17 in high-school. It's one of my best. Enjoy!

    @stephanielynn76 - I love your photography! I was reading your blog last week, and admiring your self-portraits. Fantastic stuff! And those shots of your daughter with the flowers just conjure up the very essence of summer!

    I also make jewellery in my spare time - been making it for many years, but had a large gap of not making it when boys, then boyfriend, children came along, but got back into it a few years ago and now sell my jewellery at local craft fayres and also have a website (www.lous-hand-made-crafts.co.uk - if anyone is interested :} ). Here is a sample of a few items I have made :) - hopefully I have managed to get the pictures in properly!

    You need BB code, not HTML: wrap the image URLs with [ img ] [ /img ] tags, omitting the spaces. :smile:

    My hobby is photography, mostly nature/landscape photography. I love it but still have a lot to learn. I would love one day to turn it into something more than a hobby. My pics can be seen at http://www.flickr.com/photos/nicurn/ . :happy:

    Gorgeous photos, Cynthia! I hope you don't mind, but I added you as a contact on Flickr, so I can see more of your work. I hope you realise your ambition of making your hobby pay someday. :smile:
