Introduction I am a performing artist who actually performs now and then. I have occasional self-confidence shortages alternating with mystifying bursts of chutzpah. For some reason, my favorite colour is cherry red. I admire outgoing, yet kind people. I'm a sucker for a good sunset and a smart dog. Thrift stores are my third home.

Your bow is not broken but you've run out of arrows. How can you fake being a bard?

What the hell? Who's faking?
