Who am I, and what do I do?

A writer.
A creator of prose, poetry, short stories, novellas, novels.
A composer of spoken/read lyrics.
An essayist.

The artistic endeavor with which I work now has been
birthed from the tedious rewarding tenure of a 24/7 Mother,
wife, home-school instructor, student. In me
was born an artist of text and language; evoking
emotions and mental images not likely to leave your
mind or memory, at least, any time soon. My focus is
horror fiction.



Welcome to Illusionary Endeavors. and I make a formidable force and a great team
by joining his programming + graphic design
skills with my artistic and writing focus.




I have a variety of works here, all copyright Rebecca Szumiesz in the following categories:
Fractal Art
Stationary
Photo Manips
Poetry & Prose

Q&A

Do I create artwork?
No, unfortunately I do not. My focus is now strictly on writing.

Do I write freelance?
I'd certainly like to pursue this endeavor, but with such limited writing experience I'll be building a profile instead over the following year.

Do I sell my works?
No. Currently I'm what you'd consider a "starving artist", as I don't pursue writing/art for the money, but for the simple joy of creating and sharing.

Will I? Ever sell prints?
Probably not. If I do it will be directly from my own website.

Am I published, or looking to publish my work?
Not yet. Two-Four years down the road, perhaps I will have more experience and more works to submit. Until then, my writing will be free and available from my website, and I will be 100% completely unsolicited until 2010.

Why is that?
I insist on creating free literature. By doing so, I will be putting time and energy into promoting literacy, to all classes and societies, upper and lower-class.

Will I be able to buy your work or donate?
Yes. My website will have a section giving you a list of ways you can donate. Buy my books? Sure! Any financial investment into literacy is money well-spent.
