Author: Natalie Reece
Chicago born and raised poet, and mother to a toddler I spend most of my time getting speghettios out of my clothes and sometimes hair. But when I'm not doing that I like to sit down with a good book on VIctorian times. I have a weird facination with Kings and queens and the details of why they got there heads chopped off. I eat too much candy and spend too much time watching tales from the crypt re runs. What I love about writing is that I can make people see things through my perspective. And what I love about Chicago is that Im always getting a new perspective to how things are seen.
