ABOUT ME

My name is Hasty.  I started this blog over a decade ago. I didn’t want to burden my friends so I set out to connect to strangers who could relate. Who wanted to be here. 

With the help of a therapist I worked through some serious depression here. I met people who listened, related, cared, supported, and stood up for me here. I found friendship, and the person I want to spend the rest of my life here.  

I am so glad I stayed. I raised a daughter who I am extremely proud of.  I got divorced because sometimes people grow apart and it’s ok to let go and regrow that relationship differently.  Met someone who I can’t wait to live in the same space with.  And I started creating art.  

I went from writing about hurt and pain to putting that energy into art.  There are so many ways to tell stories, to communicate and relate, and to inspire.  Below are a few links to things I am the most proud of.  I hope you check them out 🙂

 

A love note like no other, this collection of poems intimately presents a body of work created entirely as a romantic gesture from one sweet soul to another. Lovingly compiled, co-authored and edited by Byron J. Hamel, this revised collection of poetry originally written by Angela Hasty Bellingham explores her struggles with the horrors of depression and grief. A dark dreamscape of explosive minimalism. The reader is rushed into the far and surreal reaches of heartache, madness, chaos, and true loneliness, but soothed by elusive hope and perseverance. IF NOT WORDS

HASTYWORDSART where I sell the art my daughter and I create.

  1. ~~~ My words for The Beautiful You and your Wonderful Poems~~~

    If there is one word that could do justice to Angela’s poetry, it has
    to be “magic”. I fell head on heels for her poems ever since I first
    stumbled upon them on WordPress. She is the one who inspired me to
    take my poetry flare to the next level. Her poems portray a world of
    their own and they make you ponder. The vivid imagination that she
    has; paints a picture that stays forever etched in the contours of my
    heart.
    Be sure to ride a journey you will never forget when you go through
    her magical words. It has been an absolute delight to come across such
    a beautiful soul who weaves magic with words.

    Love.
