Oftentimes, I am asked the origin and/or meaning of my name.  Shimah is a derivative of the name Shammah; Hebrew-Arabic in origin, with a biblical reference to Jehovah Shammah meaning 'God is present'.  It is pronounced with the accent on the second syllable and the only one who shortens it on a consistent basis is my mother.  I think I've been looking for ways to ground myself since birth - love grounds me, as does the written word.  And so, here we are!  Please explore the menu on the homepage; here you will find the different areas in which I express myself through script.  Be it impromptu poetry, editing work, my ever-growing children's literature series, or the socially conscious (yet personally knotted) blog, it all siphons into creating and expression by way of the written word. I refer to myself as the Maternal Head of a beautiful little girl who lovingly just calls me mommy.  If you've gotten through this lengthy bio then I will assume you've got time today... so, please leave me a note - the literates are in need of inspiration and constructive feedback from time to time.  Take care of your soul and I'll see ya'll 'round the way.
