Toni Doswell, that's me, is a very recent contributor to Helium.com.(7/10/07) It was at the invitation of my daughter that I began this journey into the writer's world. My mother, whose name was Annie, told me she had always desired to be a writer. She did not fulfill this dream, so here I am with a passion to write.
I am a native of Cleveland, Ohio. I was born and raised there for the first twenty years of my life. After leaving there, I have had the privilege of traveling north, east, south and west in connection with my careers. I have met many people and sought to digest people's lives as part of me.
My hobbies include writing (now),and music. I hold an honorary doctorates in music, and have written two original music albums.
I believe God led me to this site, and it is with great pleasure that I join this writing team.
