About the Author: Leslie Johnson
Writing and Art of Leslie E. Johnson
I make myself an open book. By showing the darkness of my past, I give contrast to the light that now illuminates my life. My life is changing even now. My spirituality is evolving and changing into something different. In the past I had a Christian poetry e-mail ring that I sent out to subscribers. They are now at this site. I am not as faithful as I was when I wrote those rings and am unsure now how I feel about organized religion. Then again there were many things I was unsure of even then. I want to be honest, I once felt this way. Please enjoy the gallery of photos, the short stories, poetry, and collaborations. Thank you for visiting my page. Please come back and visit again!

Update 9/11/09 - I hope to begin a full scale remodeling of this site and it's contents soon. My life is a complicated wash of a thousand things that multiply into a malstrom which I have to wade through daily to accomplish anything. Right now I have a steady job that seems to be secure and during this "Great Recession" that is a most important thing. I just finished my Bachelor Degree in University Studies with an emphasis in Business and Written Communications. I haven't written as much creatively lately. I keep giving excuses linked to whatever current catastophy is upon my house. The truth is my muse has cooled. I haven't been published in a big way and I feel like my muse would rather be whispering in the ear of someone who can get things done. Perhaps this will change with time and circumstances. We shall see. I have joined a local Writers' guild in hopes of jump starting my writing again but have yet to be able to make a meeting (I've missed 2 so far). I'm not defeated yet, though, because I know that life will change, like the weather, if you wait long enough. Not to mention I have my mind focused to it.
