: About Me

I love to write. Sometimes it all comes out exactly how I want it too. Other times, not so much. But regardless, I love to write.

I have a ten year old, in baseball and cub scouts. We love to watch movies, read, play games, draw, and a lot of other activities.

I joined Helium so that I could expose my writing to the public eye. I do not have as much time to dedicate to writing as I would like too. But I do enjoy writing here.

My passion is ...

Writing, spending time with my son

I know too much about ...

can't think of anything I know too much about!

My parents always told me ...

that we could do anything we wanted to do!

My childhood ambition ...

to be a teacher, writer

My favorite memory ...

My son saying I love you for the first time!

Why I write ...

Because I have this thing inside me that tells me too!

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

anything by Dean Koontz, Preston Child

My first job ...

Village Pantry Pizza and Chicken department

My best moment ...

When my son was born!

My inspiration ...

My Son, My Grandmother
