I don't want to ask a question, I want to tell you how much I love your autobiographical summary. So much so, that I wish I had written it myself. What an inspiration to know that someone who is so like me is a successful author. I can't help but think, "If she can do this, why can't I?" Thank you for giving me that little bit of motivation that it will take to get me started writing. Cheers!

Angel,
Thank you so much for your comment. I'm glad you liked my autobiographical summary. Honestly, my life has been completely normal except that I love reading books, love writing, and have a wild imagination. I had many, many, MANY rejections of my books and articles before I finally published. I just kept working at it, going to writing classes, studying books, etc. Writing was my passion and I so wanted it to be my career. When my kids were young I wrote from ten at night until two in them morning, then got them off to school. I was semi - sleepless, but that was when I had time to write. You can do this, you can.
