edit data

Margo Lane is the (mostly) secret pen name of a 32-year-old poet who has recently self-diagnosed herself with ADHD, still hasn’t gone on a first date, and laments her all-or-nothing mindset on a daily, if not hourly, basis. She teaches high school English when she’s not writing sad poetry, loves to travel, and has recently begun work on a series of novels which may or may not make her actually famous one day. She loves a lot, even when it hurts, but she’s never been in love before.

I don't write full-time or anywhere near that. I find time to write when I can, but the majority of my time is taken up with teaching my high school students. I love my job more than pretty much anything, but it is incredibly time-consuming, and it can be difficult to make the time for anything outside of school. The best thing about being a writer, if I were to tell my students, would be the ability to express yourself, to see within your soul and use words to portray what you are feeling. Even if your work is fiction, there is a part of you that lives in the works that you create and that is the magic. (less)

As of early August 2021, I'm about halfway through the planned number of poems. The collection is a sequel of sorts to my first collection, "29 Without You," and will expand on some of the main ideas and themes I discuss in that collection. It is also a bit more humorous, which was something I missed in my first collection.(less)
