I wrote and published my first Urban fantasy book.
Acacia discovers she has powers and whatever photograph she’s viewing she can fall into and momentarily become the photographer?
What if there are others out there with powers?
And now she can solve the murder of her birth mother?

This is me on safari in Kenya, Africa twenty years ago. A dream that took nearly that long to reach. In 1989 I bought my photographers vest for this dream and took it with me wherever I moved knowing one day I would get there.
Some dreams take time! Don’t give up!

For most of my adult life I’ve sought refuge from LA’s bustling life for this view. I can’t help but photograph it with each visit and I miss it almost immediately after we leave. #junelake #carsonpeak #sierras

What a treat to go to her book signing. She is as charismatic and personable as she is on the app that catapulted her career. Once and Future Queen now sold in most major bookstores and I’ve Loved watching her glowup to success!!✨

A recent collage completed. When it comes to addiction the first challenge is admitting you have a problem. Acceptance is the key to recovery. #collagetherapy #michelleeblack #healingprocess

Today I’m looking at the excesses on my life. Fast fashion, fast food, and my slowly evolving addiction to overpriced coffee drinks. The indulgences that I’ve grown accustomed to.

I love a great mural! Here’s one in our beloved Pasadena outside my favorite local bookstore Vroman’s.

So many times my feelings convince me of something not based in facts. The longer I can pause before reacting, the better. Here’s that collage! These days, it’s far more challenging!!

One of my side hustles is Collage Therapy in treatment centers. Today we did an “I Am”affirmation collage!

I’ve had so many reach out to me because of the fires in Los Angeles. What most people don’t realize is that the city’s population is more than the population of half the states in America’s entire state population. Devastating damage yes, but those not affected, most are “business as usual.”
