Much less be in denial.
Erase doubts in the Now!

This website shows some Synopses of my Novels, such as Ice Stage and "Sensuousness" A Palindrome Wor(l)d, also my Memoirs and Articles for adults, and Picture Books, poetry and plays for both children and adults to stimulate healthy and creative views. The adults might have as much fun reading my books for kids as the children will have watching the grown-ups having fun. I've always had a photographic memory that I've tried to develop. As a writer, dancer, illustrator and choreographer I try to capture the same image I have on my mind's eye to translate it into words. I've been also quite optic-mystic and even my blood type tells me so :I'm a B-positive! I translated and illustrated a magazine entitled "Magia" published by Editora Ondas. I just found out that I had dyslexia before I went to school, after reviewing an old notebook where I wrote all numbers backward, such as Leonardo Da Vinci! And it seems that this latent talent runs on the family: my five-yrs-old nephew "Le Petit Nicolas" also writes his name backwards. But my love for words had me working hard to develop language skills. Maybe thanks to all my efforts to eventually overcome my deficiencies that I could see things usually in an unusual way, making my wor^l^d so peculiar. My books are unique for they come from my heart, my own life experience that I cherish and try to share it with the readers. I made my début in the theater when I was fifteen in the
Opera Carmina Burana
at the Opera House of Sao Paulo. Since then I've been on TV commercials, Soap Operas, Interviews, TV programs, Cinema, Magazines, Newspapers and recently at the Theatre and TVCable. I plan to create choreographies and dramatization of my stories, to be performed by all age groups. Since I will continue my career as an instructor, as a model/act-hlete, and author, Dance&Theatre should enhance my work. To know more about me (and the World) go to:

Sound of a Sonnet

Bored Free
So glad the Muses gave me some time
And I am feeling so free to rhyme.
I write by the beat of my own heart
And there I embrace a brand-new start.

I am used to learn music by hearing,
by ear... there's this sound of a ring
I play by the heat of the moment
or what the muse decides to consent.

I randomly write the words I sing.
Then I compose some notes and I swing,
grabbing my pen like a microphone,
so passionate of what I have done.

That's for me what counts inside and out,
what music and poetry are all about!

We've been visited by a very bright heading back into its own origin, the sun, and yet soon-to-be nonexistent comet so a propros named by the astronomer who first noticed him in the year of 2006: Mc Naught. I got so inspired by his vision that I wrote and composed two songs for him:

OUTSIDER
An astral vivid visitor
An astray visible actor!
Mr Mc Naught,
You're so bright and so naughty!!

Last week, you appeared to me,
By the deep blue sea,
Just before I closed my eye
In a sunset, so red a sky...

Now I don't even know
If you are just an UFO
Or if you come back once again so fast,
That's your first and perhaps your last!

HEAR

It's cold outside and warm in here,
Don't ever let me go,
Because if you just love me dear,
You don't leave me in the snow.

It's cold outside and warm in here,
Don't ever leave me, girl,
Because if you just want me near,
You don't leave me in this world.

I know good God just wants you there,
before the flowers bloom,
But if you need someone to care,
Wait for me and I'll come... in your doom...

I'll be there soon
To meet you in the silver moon... OM!

Some Acknowledgements on my mother tongue

(Brazilian Portuguese):


Em 1968 eu nascia em Santos e, aos dois dias de idade, ja estava como que predestinada no apartamento do nono andar no edificio Cinelandia da Av. Ana Costa, no seio de minha familia praticamente toda santista.

Lembro bem dos meus primeiros cinco aninhos. Recordo que eu tinha que caminhar o que para mim eram interminaveis "mil leguas supra-marinas", a distancia da orla no meu percal�o rumo ao mar.

Lembro que ja estavamos no fim da Ditadura e eu me via obrigada a cantar no mais alto e claro tom o Hino Nacional inteiro (e eu que fazia de conta que sabia de cor a segunda parte, imitando com caras e bocas os meus colegas de escola)

Hoje a inspira�ao e a alegria que me trazem aqueles tempos de infancia passados na Orla da praia de Santos vividos ao sol da liberdade em raios "ludicos" e a minha eterna gratidao a tao saudavel e saudosa Santos me levam a seguir em meu caminho ao mar de emo�oes que essas lembran�as me trazem e poder dizer com uma voz clara e feliz que sou santista e sou artista e esportista dessa minha vida de Cinema onde Santos eh cenario imprescindivel.

Onde eu deverei estar daqui a 30 anos?

Provavelmente com a mesma docura no olhar, com o mesmo idealismo; talvez mais sabia e mais justa, mas igual de inocente. Pois que a vida nao perdera jamais a singeleza desde que rememoraveis anos repassem sob nossos cora�oes sempre que assim almejarmos.

Talvez a inocencia esteja no olhar pequenino de cada menino que esmera ser feliz.

E o idealismo seja o de alcancarmos todos a felicidade plena; simples, assim, como o caminhar num dia de sol na orla da praia de Santos.

The Angel in Blue


AngelBlue
A "Ps!" odd in Blue

When I was six years old, I was a blue angel with wings. My mother made my costume with little sparkles of silver and golden stars, and she also confectioned my wings with soft white feathers with so much care that I was astonished! How kind she was and how much love she had for spending her precious time on doing that outfit to me. It meant the world to me, that she loved me so very much!

Then, at Christmas night I was happy, so much so that I would finally make my dream come true: I would finally be an angel blue!!!

I went to that party feeling so light that even the stars remained in silence while I walked through that door in the main room of the auditorium.

Then, I heard a voice behind me saying:

"Oh, little angel, would you get out of my sight and allow me to see what is in front of me? Your wings are obstructing my vision..."

Dive In Action

Fairy


A koan common to "^l^":

The land is white
The seed is black
Can see only by light
Cannot be a bric-a-brac

When closed it may bite
It's not a trick, but track:
It may be day or night
It still comes in a pack.


What's black and white, re(a)d all over,
With 2 o in the middle, a back and a k-over?

Flat Feet


Memoir


"Flat Feet"
An Autobiography of a Cosmic Dancer


This book is about the "re-ejections" we all go through
To eventually make our dreams come true.

"Flat Feet" fleeting from Rejection to Action tells in an inspirational way how I got out of my cocoon to realize that I should become all the potential that I am meant to be. It is about all the many necessary (and sometimes quite unnecessary) obstacles we impose in our lives to succeed. Then when I heard the call of my mission and followed my bliss I found in the very core of myself a Master and Healer.

"B:y and by, the oak tried the bamboo:
"A:h, why are you so humble?
M:oving back and forward too...
B:ending is the only move you make!"
O:nce said that, a strong wind came
O:ver the entire forest it did shake.

B:y then the wind turned into a huge hurricane,
A:fter striking into pieces half of the jungle,
M:oving the oaktree near a log of sugarcane.

B:ut after seeing that the oaktree couldn't handle
O:ver the tempest, the bamboo told the oak that remained
O:n the other side in the middle of the rumble:

'I bow and bend, but I don't break!'"

Excerpts from My Memoirs


I can feel poetry in each and every flowing sentence that my spirit may produce. Life abounds from my soul and pours down through my veins, increasing in energy and vitality. Heading the melting ice to the oceans of emotions and diversifying my creations I dare to fulfill all of my dreams, which are to enchant many a heart or two with my lyrics. For me, all this rides on the strength that is borne from my life-long love of Art.

In all of my books I persuade the reader to come closer and get so intimate within my life that he/she will feel as if it belongs to his/her own life, as if a huge embrace had conquered his/her heart and there is nothing else to do but surrender to that subtle touch of healing energy.  I know that my dreams are not modest. I just wish that my sincerity will softly and surrealistically touch the readers mind's eyes.
More of My Memoir
Peer How many Egyptians, two or three,
Or one round face? Could have been
Many more to build a pyramid...
Empaired by pharaonic presence in between.

The Lures

T~o be an artist, to feel inspired is to be in tune with your own nature.
H~elas! It's to love, to make reverence and respect each and every creature
E~nthusiasm, that meaning God inside your heart, like fires that nurture;
A delight of belonging to something so much bigger, as a great rapture.
T~here! We all are artists. Some will only know that in their final departure.
R~eal work of an artist is the reflection of his internal capture
E~ssence of his own nature and expression of his ethereal posture.
