What you’re about to “step into” is a blunt world of random personal observations, opinions, often outrageously outspoken conclusions of a writer-cum-philosopher who would rather be anything but human. In essays and poems that are all about my view of us and the world we live in, no one is excused, least of all myself, as I point to all we do, have done, and could be doing instead, if we’re as “superior” a species as we like to think we are.
I'm a writer/philosopher/mentor, committed to being "useful" in any way, but am not good at explaining myself, so below is a profile that a dear friend, a talented Peruvian writer posted on his website, where he features my work: .................... MAIA is an American poet and essayist, though she considers herself a citizen of no nation, but only a sentient being of the universe at large. Most of her writing is about controversial themes, easy to understand if we look at some of her titles listed on her website. Every title is a statement. She has a unique style, says things in a way both direct and frank. All of her poems are nice to our ears while she makes us face reality. ................................ She uses a plain English to reach people of every condition and in all corners of the world. She is not merely a preacher of the good and the evil, but is also a practitioner of her beliefs. One of her duties imposed by herself on this earth is to help people master the art of writing, for free. You can reach her at her e-mail or go to her web site: www.saysmom.com .............I provide affordable editing/writing assistance [includes query letters, rewrites, etc.] and free mentoring for aspiring writers of all breeds. http://www.saysmom.com/maia/professionalservices.asp http://www.saysmom.com/maia/services.asp
