About
The
Editor

Lawrence
writes:
"
There
exist
two
great
modes
of
life--the
religious
and
the
sexual."
Eroticism
is
the
bridge.

Sieannen
Bell
lives
in
the
Blue
Ridge
mountains
of
northern
Virginia
pursuing
more
passions
than
she
will
ever
have
time
for.
She
is
a
gypsy,
a
wild
woman
and
a
girl
from
a
fairy
tale
that
you
have
yet
to
read.
She
firmly
believes
that
poetry,
literature
and
art
have
the
power
to
change
lives.
As
such,
her
favorite
authors
include
Lenore
Kandel,
Terry
Tempest
Williams,
Linda
Hogan,
Erica
Jong
and
Henry
Miller.
Her
occupation
is
a
strange
mixture
of
raising
flowers,
web
design,
writing
and
painting.
She
is
currently
working
on
a
book
of
poetry,
Whiskey
and
Rain,
and
a
novel,
Dancing
in
the
Ceremony
of
Fire. She
says
that
her
writing
has
been
equally
influenced
by
jazz/blues,
Henry
Miller
and
fairy/folk
tales.
