I truly never know what to say in profiles. How do I sum myself up in a few words? ::::: I am Red Pen: daughter, sister, aunt, wife, mother, friend. I've been happily married for just shy of forever to my best friend and soulmate, Tall. I have two amazing/amusing/aggravating teenage sons, Antic & Sleeper. They are a huge part of my life, and naturally I write about them here at times; select 'sons' from my tags to meet them. ::::: In my professional life, I am a freelance designer, specializing in website design/production, advertising, marketing collateral, writing, and editing. I consider myself lucky - I love my job. ::::: Things I do just for me include reading, photography, and lately, blogging. I'm enjoying my space here on Vox. I use it to break out of my shell a bit, to be part of a larger community, and to work on my writing and photography. My biggest personal passion is reading. I've loved books since I was big enough to hold one open. I make regular visits to the library, returning home with armloads of treasure I can't wait to devour. The titles in my 'books' section here on Vox are a small sampling of books I've read and enjoyed.
