L. K. Chazda Albright is a self-taught artist with Majors in English and
Philosophy and a Degree in Residential Design. In 2002 Albright moved from
the western coast of America to the Hessen Region of Germany with her
husband, and in 2006 they had a daughter.
Under the penname Stevie Burns, Chazda is known as a straight-talking erotica writer and painter who from 2003 to 2006 edited, designed, and published other people's work as well as her own through erotica ezine Voracity the Erotica Beat and a small independent press called Booker Girl. Her popular Mrs. Saucebox editorials are now anthologised in SEX and Many Chiropractor Bills (3rd edition), which includes an award winning erotica short story.
Credited as herself, Chazda has published an experimental book of poetry accompanied by drawings created off the cuff within Microsoft Word. POETRY! Handle With Care: a book of poems and something sort of like art includes some of Chazda's award winning poetry.
Albright has had her artwork showcased in a number of solo exhibitions scattered throughout the western US and Homburg, Germany. She has memberships in many writing, illustration and design groups and posts regularly at her blog:
Currently, Chazda is writing her next screenplay.
Poems include the award winning "He Brings Yellow Flowers To The City" and "Star Stuff." The poem "The Princess, To The Prince" has been widely published on greetings eCards. "Morning Reassurance" has been displayed in galleries as Word Art.
POETRY! Handle with Care is a visually compelling project where art, taken in tandem with its poetry, unfolds much like fiction. Each poem can and should be read as separate entities, but taken as a whole work, from cover to cover, one feels a story has been told.
"witty and whimsical... Albright delivers a very honest and personal – and sometimes very funny – collection of lifelong poetry." -Mark McGinty of The Boogle
"I envisioned the poet wearing sunglasses while reading it and really playing it up for the audience."
-Shannon Yarbrough of LL Book Review
Book for Babies } Pull This, Pull That
The rhythmic story of a baby who likes to pull all sorts of things to find out what happens. She pulls Grandpa's glasses, Daddy's nose, and Mommy's hair... and with every pull gets a very gratifying reaction.
At last we see that Baby has pulled down the table cloth and rather than hear the anticipated, "Ah! Oh! No! Let go, let go, let go! Sweet Baby, let go!" We hear crashing and banging noises from various items falling off the table, a fantastic payoff.
Colors are bright, forms are simple, but a little mouse romance (a subplot) will hold the child's interest well into their toddler years.
