WHAT IS PINK INK:
Pink Ink Designs is a graphic, print and web design company based in Charlottesville, Virginia with a strong focus in book cover design, author branding, and interior book formatting. While my home may be in Virginia, most of my clients are located throughout the United States and beyond. I place a huge emphasis on awesome design, excellent client service, and timely communication. Throughout my thorough design process, you work directly with me as we create a look that reflects your style.
HOW I GOT HERE:
As a graphic design student at Piedmont Virginia Community College and a self taught designer, my goal of being an author as well as opening my own graphic design business has always been a dream of mine. Over the last year, I have slowly geared my career path towards this goal, taking in every bit of business and design experience I could along the way. I threw together my own brand and website with big hopes and fingers crossed for Pink Ink Designs. By December of 2014 my business had taken off faster than I could have ever hoped and lead me to take the leap into full time self employment as of April 30, 2015.
ON A PERSONAL NOTE:
In between designing, I am a contemporary/erotic romance author as well as a group fitness instructor at Gold's Gym where I am a Les Mills instructor certified in BodyAttack, BodyCombat, BodyFlow, BodyStep, and Body Pump. I have three wonderful children and a very loving and supportive husband who has been with me as I have chased after my dream. I was born and raised in Arkansas (Go Razorbacks!) but have lived in Virginia for the past 12 years.

She is extremely talented and has designed the most amazing book covers for me. She’s quick and knows exactly what I want without me having to tell her. She can take an ordinary photograph and turn it into a masterpiece that represents my stories in the best possible way. She’s very professional and a hard working individual that is a true pleasure to work with. I look forward to working with her on many more book covers now and in the future. Pink Ink Designs is the way to go!"

I AM AN ESCORT.
I screw men and get screwed for money,
living my life everyday as Jericho Lane.
My clientele list is immaculate.
I am sought out, demanded
and damn good at my job.
I don’t care that these men have families at home,
or that they are important people.
I do it for the money.
to survive.
There is nothing that could make me
feel a bit of remorse or
concern about what I do because
I was born with the inability
to experience or feel emotions...
I don’t feel PAIN
I don’t feel SORROW.
I don’t feel extreme HAPPINESS or LOVE
I am VOID.
A blank canvas of emotions.
An empty hole in an endless sea of
circumstances, moods and relationships.
