Well behaved women rarely make history. Teri Brown lived that quote way before she ever even heard it. The two things she is most proud of, (besides her children), is that she jumped out of an airplane once and she beat the original Legend of Zelda video game. She is a novel writer, head banger, pet keeper, math hater, cocktail drinker, booty shaker, book reader, city slicker, food fixer, French kisser, rule breaker, wine sipper and word scribbler. She loves her husband, kitties and chocolate.

Quotes by Teri Brown (?)

“No matter how angry she makes me, she's still my mother, and I have to protect her if I can.”
― Teri Brown, Born of Illusion

5 likes

“Our fortunes have gone up and down over the years, but my mother has never lost her ruthless poise. Whether she's in a cheap boardinghouse in the Midwest or in the drawing rooms of the rich, she is always the same — regal, mysterious, and completely at ease. I might admire her if she wasn't my mother.”
― Teri Brown, Born of Illusion

“No, what you saw wasn't always pretty. Sometimes it was ugly and hard. But life is both the pretty and the ugly. Sometimes you were alone and afraid and hungry. Lots of people are alone and hungry.”
― Teri Brown, Born of Illusion
