  • Bangin. Again.

    January 16, 2019January 16, 2019

    Welp, the bangs are back. I said sayonara to my eight head for a few months, and hello to good looking messy ponytails. But really, I must confess, I’m happier with bangs. Of any length

  • I don’t know why I feel

    November 13, 2017December 12, 2018

    I don’t know why I feel the need to document whenever I do the slightest change to my hair and rock a bold lip. But I do. So here you go. Trust me I know

  • In an attempt to save time

    September 27, 2017December 12, 2018

    In an attempt to save time, I successfully gave myself a bang trim, (or actually pretty much recut my bangs since they had become a long shaggy non-bang.) Any former hair stylists of mine might

    Documenting the latest cut and color…that I’m rather in love with. Channeling my inner 1980′s Goldie Hawn with a touch of Vintage Bardot. Holla. Fresh out of the salon pics are aqui as well. (Well,

    Yep. Whenever I change my hair, I deem it post-worthy. Even though I never know which pic to use, or what to do with my face. So here you go. The bangs are back, I

  • Bangs, beautiful bangs.

    July 10, 2013December 12, 2018

    The bang. The key to softening your overall look, covering your forehead (or in my case, eight head), an easy way to change your hair without chopping it all off or switching colors, and as

  • Beach Hair 101: Bangs are Bangin’

    March 22, 2011December 12, 2018

    Bangs are nothing new, but they seem to be showing off cheekbones and eyes everywhere. They also give off that 70’s stylish beach vibe no matter what type of fringe you choose. So, in lieu

    I rarely read my poems out loud. But there’s one I rarely read my poems out loud. But there’s one I did read to myself after I finished it and couldn’t make it through without getting choked up. Well, it took about five tries to do this voiceover without a voice crack. But…mission accomplished. It’s the second poem in my book, and is called “if you ask me”  Hope you like it. 

Kind of impressed how the captions picked up almost every word correctly in spite of my tendency to mumble.

    So, I published a book. It was a big goal of mine So, I published a book. It was a big goal of mine last year to finally take all of my favorite poems that I've written over the past decade or so, and compile them all into a book.

I started the "project" in May, and finally hit publish on December 14, 2022. 

The whole goal was this: I really wanted my poems, paired with some favorite photos and illustrations together in one tangible spot before they got lost in the noise of the internet and social media world. Which is getting noisier and more abyss-like by the day. And I think it all came together at just the right time. I still want to try out 30 more cover design options, but my husband reminded me it's the inside that counts, and after flipping through it one final time, he was right.

Self-publishing is a trip, one I definitely am grateful I took.

Sunny Thoughts For Salty Souls: Poems, Thoughts, and Photos for a Quick Escape or Word hug. By Rebekah Steen. (Available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books A Million and hopefully more and more independent bookstores, shops, and beach boutiques soon.) 

Felt really good to type that. Yay books. ☀️🌴🧡
