Eva Brown

I'm Eva ELisabeth. There's not much to know about me...a boring little woman, with a boring little life. I live in a small southern town & grew up in an even smaller southern town. 

As a toddler my parents lived all over Florida & Virginia with me & my brother. I wound up being one of those gifted & talented kids who never had to try hard in school...maybe a little bit of a goth...but I always managed to fit in. I was very into the arts, cheering, soccer, softball & fund raising for the AHA. I went on to attend college at Mary Baldwin College & later Virginia Western Community College & J. Sargeant Reynolds. I also graduated from L'image school of Cosmetology & attended Virginia Hair Academy. 

For many years I worked in a local factory called Elizabeth Arden or CEI, making & packing perfume & makeup, then later in a supervisory position called Utility Operator. There may also be some who recall me working as a waitress in the old S&S cafe at Tower's Mall. Additionally I've worked in sales, most notably of jewelry, & floral design, the majority of which centered around Christmas decor interestingly enough. At 19 I began cosmetology school & went on to become a nail artist for a time...working in many local & regional hair, nail & tanning salons. I also ran a natural nail shop in my home for 2 years until the area was rezoned.

I first began writing blogs of silly stories & recipes in 2011, since then I have moved on to making a few YouTube videos & I try to take artistic photos & edit them to my own satisfaction...hopefully they'll please others as well. I share them regularly on my fan page at www.facebook.com/mistresstroll

Now in my 40's, I still have many varied interests & an artistic nature. Since 2009 I have had far more time to explore my pastimes. My hobbies include photography, writing, web development, thrift shopping, salvage, crafts, shameless self promotion, reading about crime, hiking in the woods, watching horror movies & staring at shiny things. You can usually find me at home where I manage to keep busy with my 2 teenage boys & a little bit of volunteer work I...it helps me feel useful so I'm no hero...well maybe I'm the Batman but you'll never know!
