IN MEDUSA’S MIRROR: A tragicomedy in six acts A collection of essays, poems and miscellaneous bits of wonder-whys by a writer who’s part Billy-Graham-minus-Bible, part David Copperfield-without-wand. Mama’s chicken soup for the soul is served up here, while the author does battle with our worst enemies...our long-deluded selves. IN MEDUSA'S MIRROR contains philosophical/inspirational essays and poems on social problems and human behavior from both First World and Third World perspectives, the poetry maïa aptly calling "philosetry." Are you brave enough (& honest enough) to look into MEDUSA’S MIRROR? Go ahead, I dare you! (excerpted from introduction by: E. M. Fay, Writer-Animal Rights Activist)
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
