Ashley Mcnulty tells us:  "I've been writing for a long time. Since I was little. Even in highschool teachers urged me to get my writings out into the world.  I'm not only a fan of writing, I fell in love with photography in the 10th grade.  Writing and Photography are like my personal escape."

For The Empty Hearted

The Memories
Cover photo by Ashley Mcnulty •	{mooblock=Familiar Souls} A blaze scars these people Scorching their surface as one soul might do to another, if it got too close. A velvet red layer surrounds their wounds, pain is not felt, but comfort. Under a blanket of yearning dots, Souls move as they want, others are commanded. The urgency to be safe Lingers, constricting my lungs. To acquire this security we must trust one another, and when the burning returns At least we will have each other. • Ashley Mcnulty © 2011 {/mooblock}
The First Steps
Cover photo by Ashley Mcnulty •	{mooblock=In School Suspension} Slowing my pace I reach the office Open the door A rush of cool modified air Charges at me My pace accelerates To the isolated room Where I will remain The lack of color Adds anxiety to my thoughts The pale yellow walls Tower above me Long row of chairs Lined up like soldiers The sounds of the clocks ticking Getting louder Gossiping of the secretaries Sitting. Waiting. Thinking. Is all I can do. • Ashley Mcnulty © 2011 {/mooblock}
