Hey everyone! It's been a little while since the last time I posted on my blog!
I'm happy to announce that my first poetry book is out, called Little Bits of Me, and should be coming to physical copies in a few days. Here's the synopsis: A series of poems encapsulating Zena's first twenty-one years, from the innocence of childhood to the pain of trauma. Her words capture the raw and intense emotions that arise while navigating love, loss, and the challenges of growing up. Through her artful expression, Zena invites readers to join her on a path of self-discovery, as she grapples with joys and sorrows, while still finding meaning and beauty in the midst of it all.

Green is the leaved cattails and plants sprawling the marsh.
Green is the sparkly energy orbs summoned by Ninjago’s chosen one. Green is the weeds that annoy gardeners to no end. Green is the short stickly grasses donning the lawn. Green is the webbed, holed leaves stretching over the trickling creek. Green is the plastic and metal accents on the playground, waiting for children to frolic atop them. Green is the long, thin leaves airily rustling as wind rushes past. Sometimes it's too much
Sometimes things scare me Sometimes... Sometimes... Sometimes... Clouds swirl in my mind It's like a tornado in there Sometimes I wonder if I'm home Sometimes I think things could be different If I'd lived in another time Another life I imagine myself...
As a young woman, Able to support myself Starting a family United in marriage Strong in my faith. I imagine myself... Doing what I love, Being independent, My own person, Sharing what I’ve learned. I was... Lively, Carefree, Joyful. I am... Empathetic, Kind, Supportive. I want to be... Independent, Hardworking, Happy with who I am: The person God means for me to be. And I’m loving every second of it. It's been awhile since I've done an update on my original story Operation: Respawn. I've recently gotten an Inkarnate account, and I finished a version of the map of Diyaura (which I plan to commission someone to create a more personalized version of later), shown below. Additionally, I'm four chapters into my first draft. I'm not sure yet how long I want to make the story, but I've been considering 23 chapters, as someone in the Ninjago fandom wrote a story that long. It's still quite early in the writing process, so it's still up in the air.
