Rosemary Nissen-Wade: Aussie poet and teacher of metaphysics – a personal view
My bestie nicknamed me SnakyPoet on her blog, and I liked it. (It began as
'the poet of the serpentine Northern Rivers' and became more and more abbreviated.)

Are You an Extravert or an Introvert?

I am an introvert. I am quite happy with hours of my own company, and NEED great gobs of solitude and reflection every day or I get frazzled and cranky. I was a shy, withdrawn child with just a few close friends. As an adult, I learned to look outwards as well, and to feel self-confident — but I am still hopeless at small talk, prefer email or at least texting to phone calls, keep my facebook chat switched off, and usually wriggle out of attending parties. 

 I can initiate conversations if I have something important to say (like, 'Can you tell me the way to the "Ladies"?') but it doesn't come easily.
