Freelance writer and graphic designer in rural northern Maryland. As a writer I enjoy both fiction and non fiction (travel and local interest stories.) Most recently my non fiction writing has been featured in Mason-Dixon ARRIVE Magazine. As a graphic designer I focus on cover designs and have done a number of designs for books and magazines. Recently I’ve entered the e-book cover field. I also enjoy working with community organizations and churches to bring their communications to a higher standard. As an advocate for the ARTS, one of my biggest passions is helping young people find a voice in all the performing arts. To that end it has been my honor to give one on one lessons to high school students in graphic design.

Hi Soumyav,
😉 Thanks.
I love the artwork you used for COUP D’OEIL. I did something simular for a christmas card a few years ago (but much more simply.) Peace through knowledge is so important to me.
Have a great day. Cheers, Rita
