Strangely enough, I have several friends who are professional photographers. One friend, Dave Rodrigue of DJR Studios, has been inviting me to do a photo shoot for a long time. After about a year of putting him off, I finally found the time to submit to his photographic whims yesterday – so very glad that I did!

He took bunches of pics of me, but is still going through them and making adjustments. Here’s the one I like most so far…

I’ll post more once he’s gone through them all. I’m really excited to see the rest!

I’m Nova

I have no “personal brand.” I’m not a girl boss, I’m not an influencer, and I don’t aspire to be powerful, inspiring, or rich. I probably can’t teach you anything, and there’s a good chance that there’s nothing at all of interest or use to you here. This is just where I come to talk about the random bits and pieces that make up my quiet life as a sober woman in her 40s. I’m engaged to the love of my life, have six (yes, SIX) indoor pets, and spend a lot of time gardening and hunting for thrift treasures. I also study classical voice (I’m a lyric coloratura soprano) and am deeply interested in all things spiritual and paranormal. Right now I’m trying to recover from career burnout and even out my personal energy, but my eventual goal is to become a medium and shamanic healer, using music to remind humans of the things that actually matter: connection, community, and loving all living things as though they were our own children. I may or may not talk about all of these things here (and sometimes all at once). Welcome!
