edit data

Grew up in Texas and began writing at an early age. I set all my writing aside to raise my children and came back to my first love at the age of 40. I now have four wonderful adult children and a dream I am currently pursuing. I have two books I have self-published and am currently working on a third in the series. I also have several in the works. I have one that is almost completed that I will be submitting to agents. I am active in NaNoWriMo, FB, Twitter, and my own website. Please check me out.

Remember...the worst thing you can do to an artist is pass by their work without voicing any opinion.

Motivation!

During my creative outpouring while on our cruise, I was listening to Daniel play the guitar and sing songs. I had my head down during most of his session because of all the words that came pouring out of me onto the notepad. As I was writing, he sang a song about being someone's support and being there for the girl. I found out later the song was "I'll Be" by Edwin McCain. It is a beautiful song.
