Author Description

In this striking debut chapbook collection of confessional and metaphoric poetry, comic book artist and illustrator Dani Smith departs from the polished glamour of the comic book world and delves fully into the art of writing, using the written word to touch on issues and concepts surrounding abuse, relationships, motherhood, mythology, creativity, sexuality, the god/goddess, nature, and madness. BEING OPHELIA is a fearless journey into one writer's private world as she bears her deepest urges, fears, dreams, and desires.
