: About Me

Hi!

I was born Edwina Anastasia Criear-Chikere on September 11, 1965. The day I was born there was a hurricane that made headlines. My date of birth is now linked to that Infamous Day. Well, what can you do?

I wrote my first song when I was 9 years old. I wrote my first story when I was 13 years old. My mother writes songs and poems, that's were the "bug" came from. I have written off and on through out my life. I am ready to pursue writing in earnest.

I am developing a screenplay along with my songwriting, and quirky life stories. I am living my passion and I love it. I want you to love it too. So jump on, and enjoy what it is like to get hit out of left field.

I married in November 2008 to a great guy. I have not focused so much on my writing lately and I am back working on my writing chops. Let's see what happens.

Written 07/06/2003 Title: How Do You Want To Be Remembered? Easy come, easy go. Fame is fleeting, or didn't you know. Striving for that ring of gold. Before you know it, you've died before you've grown old. Memories you leave behind. But what sort, the good or bad kind? What kind of name, will you leave? What type of person, is really up your sleeve? Chorus: How do you want people to remember you? Were you uptight or were you really cool? Were you known for your clothes and your pretty hair? Or did you always show people how much you care? How do you want people to remember you? Were you k...
