Notes from a Meeting

Unicorns will poke your nose.

If you have no eyes fish will swim in your head.

Angry bunnies need to have fun, too.

It's MY egg!

About Me

My Photo
Bridget McAlonan
I live on the edge of the woods in Maine on a piece of pretty nice dirt with the husband and the person we made and a whole mess of domesticated mammals and snakes that live in the walls of my house. One of my cats brings me rodent hearts and I resist placing them in glass jars. I do however walk barefoot in the mud. I make delicate artwork…delicate like brick wrapped in a lace doily.
