About me


When I was a little girl, I used to read the King James Bible under the covers by flashlight. I want to understand "THE WORD".

I've written something everyday of my life, for as long as I can remember.
Words fascinate me, they always have. I believe that words have feelings that bring them to life and they must be allowed to move and breathe, so that they are able to transport you into the middle of the action.

I began writing short stories in 2006. I immediately won a writing contest, which gave me the courage and motivation to continue writing short stories.

I wrote poetry in High School and College, but I don't do that so much anymore. There is one I wrote that sticks in my head maybe because it's about my ex, who has anger issues.

There a rooster in the hen house
spittin' n scratchin'

There's a rooster in the hen house
kickin' up dust

There's a rooster in the hen house
just makin' noise
crowin' in the mornin'
flappin' his wings
he's bullyin' the hens and other ugly things

There's a rooster in the hen house y'all
struttin' around....
makes you ask the question - "Why ain't we got no eggs?"

I know it's rough, but it truly reminds me of him. I have five children, they all write, with the exception of the youngest, he's six. I have remarried and now I have eight children!

Entertainment > Movie Genres Top five movies of all time

"Top Five Movies of ALL Time" it's kinda like trying to pick the greatest story ever told, but I've decided to throw my two cents into this vast ocean of brilliant writers and say with assurance, "I'll be your huckleberry." I won't bore you with stating the obvious about different people, different tastes. I'm going to point you to fifteen movies, five in three categories: Most Romantic, Most Hilarious, and Just Twisted. First up, "Just Twisted". These are the movies that'll have you scratching your head when it's over and often times calling your friends saying, "You have to see it!". I h...
