Amanda Lynn Aisling

I never cared much for speaking of myself in the third person; it frustrates me so. I would much prefer to pretend that we have met for tea at the local shop. I will be having a green tea with mint and a dollop of agave, maybe you will be adventurous and have the mushroom blend, and then we can begin.My name is Amanda. I like to write, I like to paint, I like to collage and solve problems and help people find joy. I prefer not to use the Oxford comma, though I have found I use a great deal of regular commas. I like to wear bell bottoms and crystal jewelry. Sometimes I forget how to spell why, though I never forget how to ask why. And while all of this is fascinating to be sure, what I really love is living every day as myself, taking each moment to find me and know me as I put together all the pieces of my soul that were once scattered.My journey has been a long journey, as it has for many of us, and I have always feared its telling. But now, I am finally ready to share. If you find yourself here, welcome. It is a blessing to have you. May you leave with something beautiful, whatever it may be. That in itself will be enough for me.For more information about my work and projects, visit my website.
