I don't think you can know too much about anything. But knowledge is useless if you don't put it into practice & for the benefit of other people.

My parents always told me ...

To do your very best; be true to yourself; (my mum said this): God gave you 2 ears & 1 mouth so listen more

My childhood ambition ...

I honestly can't remember; I was very quiet and shy when I was a kid

My favorite memory ...

I write because it has the power to touch a chord with people; I love it, I've been given a gift and I want to use it for the benefit & blessing of other people as "the pen is mightier than the sword." Because writing is the best way I have of conveying & expressing my faith; thoughts; desires; feelings and emotions.

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

I'm reading The Craft of Lyric Writing by Sheila Davis; Wild at Heart by John Eldridge; I'm listening to the new Irish band Director; Red Hot Chilli Peppers; Lyric FM; Delirious and Jamiroquai; I'm watching Law & Order: SVU & Jools Holland

My inspiration ...

God & his Word; my parents; my sister and any piece of music or film that makes me think; laugh or cry!
