Welcome to KD’S PLACE, home of the Sassy Soul Poet. I’m excited to share my story. As a teen, I loved dreaming up stories and plays, always hoping to write my own book someday. That dream came true with my first children’s book, Silly Me. It’s a fun tale about love, filled with silly rhymes and colorful pictures, showing kids that love is their own unique special gift.

Silly Me began as a poem I wrote. At the 2023 Nationals Season 10 Poetry Publishing Workshop in Los Angeles, I turned the poem into a song, sparking my journey into children’s books. My book has been featured at live poetry events in Erie, PA.

Stay updated by sharing your email! Alongside Silly Me, I write adult poetry on overcoming childhood trauma and I now provide Trauma Informed Coaching workshops and private session via zoom. While your here check out my Spoken Word Poetry and Poetry Art pages for my adult recovery poems.

Lastly, I am excited to announce our new store KD’S Place Local Books & Arts coming soon to downtown Erie PA. A unique community hub where creative souls meet. A showcase of local authors, artisans, musicians, poets, singers, and more. Follow us on Facebook and join us on our journey of turning a local bar into a local book & art store.

Poetry Is Life

Poetry is life running through our veins

Offering a vessel for healing pains

Every word has rhyme and reason

Truth and wisdom joining us all

Rhythm is the song singing to our soul

You are special and not alone
