: About Me

I am a struggling writer, and the mother of four sons ages 20 to 27. I just want to explore all phases of writing. I plan to publish a book soon. I have traveled a lot over my years. I would love to be able to write as a profession. I write poetry also, I just love putting words together to form a message. Words have so much power if you use them right. I am not really sure how far I will make it as writer, but I'm going to give it my best shot, for me and my sons, and also my mother may she rest in peace. She wanted me to write, she has always believed in me, no matter what the circumstances, and that is what gave me the courage to do a lot of things in life. I am currently enrolled in college and will be taking a host of english courses, to improve my writing skills. I really hope this will help me find a writing career. It is now 2010 and I have finally printed out my manuscript.  My book is entitled The Raintree(the legends unfolds).  This is what I am up to these days besides working.  Spending time woth my husband and friends. I really hope this book can swim.  I really feel it is a great story.
