About the Authors
My journey as a writer began at the tender age of seven when the magic of words first captured my imagination. My mother was a poetess and I admired every syllable, memorizing them as my own. From scribbled stories in notebooks to heartfelt poems penned in the quiet of night, writing became my sanctuary.As the years unfolded, so did my passion for storytelling. Each word became a brushstroke on the canvas of my life, painting pictures of adventure, love, heartache, and resilience. I delved into the realms of poetry and prose exploring the nuances of language and the endless possibilities it held.With every piece I crafted, I discovered more about myself and the world around me. Writing became not just a creative outlet but a journey of self-discovery, introspection, and growth. Through the highs and lows of life, my pen remained my constant companion, shaping my thoughts into narratives that resonated with others.Today, as I look back on my journey, I am grateful for the gift of words and the privilege of sharing my stories with the world. My writing has been a reflection of my experiences, my dreams, and my evolving perspective on life.Join me on this ongoing odyssey through words, where each page turned is a step closer to understanding ourselves and the beauty of the human experience.With gratitude, DMTakeshi
Brandy Lane has lived most of her life in Indiana and Colorado, where she resides with her husband and four children. She published her first book, Where Beautiful Loves, in December 2020 under her imprint, Where Beautiful Inks. Just after the release of her first book, she discovered anthologies as an option for publishing and has since had poetry pieces included in over three dozen publications.

A hopeless romantic, Brandy draws inspiration mainly from nature, but also from human connection. Her poetry is much like her personality, showing vulnerability as well as strength. The muse that she writes to is someone who taught her she is worthy of love, that she is "enough" and yes, "sometimes more than enough." She finds beauty in every situation, which sometimes is her greatest curse. In her spare time, she loves spending time outdoors in the mountains, taking in the sublime views. She also loves a good board game, and video chatting with her favorite friends all over the world. Brandy can be found online: on Instagram @wherebeautifullives and Facebook @Where Beautiful Lives
