Initially,

the penname MystiqueWizzard didn´t exist for me.  I started writing poetry, or so I thought when I was around 12. I remember making my own rhymes following a musical rhythm in my head.

Years later, I started writing in Spanish and then much later some poetry in Japanese and occasionally in Portuguese.

I took on very different names while I wrote in Spanish. Shen-lung, Mystique, Mystique1957, Dragon Wizard, Masquerade, Tsuki-no-ai, until finally I settled for MystiqueWizzard, purposely using adouble "z" for impact.

I then decided to start writing in English seriously when I joined Allpoetry in 2010.

I disappeared from Allpoetry for almost a year, following my mother´s passing and went on writing articles at HubPages.com

I returned to Allpoetry in 2012 meeting new poets and making new friends. I dabble in almost any possible style for I believe you must try different ways of writing to improve and develop your own.

I don´t believe in ego trips. I feel we can learn from every person we meet daily, virtually or personally. I take advice that is given kindly. Kindness is very important in my inner world. My purpose is to write short-stories, poems, prose, rhyme and eventually a book

with the sole purpose of sharing living experiences, views and a Spiritual message.

Notice I did not say religious, I said Spiritual, and Spirituality can take on many forms of expression…

Light shines brighter where darkness dwells…

Creator writes straight with crooked lines, and

LOVE is the only answer…

Thank you for taking the time to read me,

I will sure read you as well: All for ONE and ONE for all…
