: About Me

I've been freelancing for most of my teenage and adult life, and have been blessed to have inspirational articles published both nationally and internationally.  Would love to make a full-time career of writing, but have a dream job and a regular paycheck that I'd be a fool to give up just yet.  I've almost completed two fiction novels, which I hope to seriously concentrate on getting published one of these days.    

I've been happily married to my soulmate, Gary, for thirty-one years! We're both cancer survivors, and currently reside in Houston, Texas. I have four wonderful adult children and nine beautiful grandchildren. The love of my life is Jesus Christ.

My passion is ...

My family, writing and living for Christ!

I know too much about ...

My children's teenage escapades

My parents always told me ...

To marry for love instead of money (and I did...)

My childhood ambition ...

To be a wife and mother (and I am...)

My favorite memory ...

My wedding day

Why I write ...

All these stories just keep circulating in my head!

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

The pitter-patter of rain while reading 'Jane Eyre'.

My first job ...

Secretary/Receptionist at a Wholesale Supply Company

My best moment ...

When I opened my heart to Christ

My inspiration ...

A cross and an empty tomb.
