Mirror, mirror on the wall
who will be my next victim after all.
That stupid choo-choo train that chugs along
Or the clang, clang, crash of mom’s dishes
“Buttons” knocked on the floor.
Oh no, John, not again!
Stupid cat.
Or the swish, swish of people’s feet outside my house.
Wobble, wobble, swish, swish, clang, clang, chug a lug, choo-choo, ooh, ooh, la la, dada, nana. Noisy sounds that plague my mind.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
I am my next victim after all.
About Me
- Heather M. Riccio
- I have been professionally writing since I was 19 years old. I am the Career Editor at Hilary Magazine and a marketing intern for the Palm Springs International Film Festival (www.psfilmfest.org). Previous to working at HILARY (www.hilary.com), I worked at Teen People, while writing for Beautiful Girl magazine, the Desert Post and Palm Springs Life magazine. I am a self-proclaimed spa enthusiast who loves moonlight walks on the beach and a healthy dose of challenges. Bring it on! One of my metafiction pieces can be found online at www.mettafiction.blogspot.com/. I also have a blog dedicated completely to my writing, http://imaginationignited.blogspot.com. I hope to have my first YA novel published shortly after graduating from the UCR Palm Desert MFA program in JUNE 2009. I hold a BA in Liberal Studies with an emphasis in English and Creative Writing and a BS in Anthropology from University of California, Riverside.
