# About me
I love photography! Being able to take a moment/fragmented piece of time and stop it brings me such joy!While I'm a photographer, I do writing as well, mostly poetry, but I am currently working on various novels:
1. The Dragon Sword (rough to 1st book done)
2. Of the Sea (Rough to first book done)
3. The Divide United (1/4 done with rough)
4. Eons (1/5 done with rough of 1st book)
Together with my two main passions I like sketching and painting which is quickly becoming more and more enjoyable to me (I had once loved drawing, was great at it when suddenly just lost my feel to draw until 2012 when was bored and decided to paint... and I painted... A blue flower back dropped by a warm sun setting colors.
I've started my own Patreon account - www.patreon.com/MelindeMari
And would love the support as it will allow me to paint more and go to more places to achieve my ultimate goal - to see the world and photograph all the magic there exists!
