    I've never really liked labels, they've always felt so limiting. But in the interest of introducing myself I'll tell you that I'm many things: nurse, writer, photographer, poet, painter, gardener, pet mom, friend, armchair philosopher, nature lover, movie buff, sometime yogi, and aspiring world traveler. I think that's a pretty good list, for now. I'm excited to become a bigger part of the vital, creative force I feel at work in the world and to connect with other people who want to do the same.

  • New poem, “Trespass”

    Posted by Jacqlyn Thorne on January 17, 2020

    Dreaming a bit about taking a trip to Scotland one day, which I recently learned has no such laws. Quite a contrast to this country, where ownership and possession are so highly prized.
