About me

See how it all got started @ Helium http://heliumblog.wordpress.com/2009/10/09/writer-testimonia l-how-helium-launched-my-writing-career/

Who knew so much could happen to an amateur horticulturist. just because she was lucky enough to stumble across HELIUM. Of course, if I hadn't been looking for my husband's website (He just so happens to do helium leak testing all over the country) I never would have found this HELIUM. Fate is funny that way.

I love plants and gardening and because of this love I've written a garden column for over a decade for our local paper and now contribute to several on-line gardening websites. My goal is to make gardening easy for everyone so, if you ever have a garden question, just ask. If I don't know the answer I'll search until I do.

My real love, however, is writing short stories mostly of a romantic ilk , several of which I have posted on HELIUM. Only thing is some of my stories are too long for HELIUM. So if you want to read a more in-depth story , a novella or sequals and prequals to others already at HELIUM go to Glory's Stories and fall into romance. It might get you out of your funk.

I am also the keeper of the trees and shrubs. That is to say I am now Channel Steward for the Tree and Shrub sub-channel @ Helium's Home and Garden channel, a Lorax of sorts. So if you have any tree or shrub concerns, queries or comments do feel free to let me. I am here to help and, of course to speak for the trees and shrubs, for they have no tongues as we all know.

My Zones number 12 now. They are:

The Adventures of Zebrina the Cat

The Seed Swap Zone

The Herb Garden

How to create your own backyard bird sanctuary

Landscaping With Shrubs

Landscaping With Vines

Ornamental Grasses

All Things Harry Potter

Landscaping With Trees

The Jane Austen Book Club

Glory Lennon: In a Nut Shell

My favorite Zone, is a special one for me for it serializes a book I have been working on for several years. Violet's in Bloom can be seen coming together in weekly installments with each chapter posted in Helium's Creative Writing Novel excerpts channel. Come visit and see if you don't fall right into the romance of it all.

"Life's too short for ugly clothes.""You sound like something out of Cosmo. Please, tell me you are not reading Cosmo. Hasn't it been established that it rots the brain as surely as candy rots teeth?" Francine told her infuriatingly blase sister.Rolling her eyes, Gina stood in front of the full-length mirror in the only dress shop her stubborn sister would enter willingly and ignored her latest gibe. She proceeded to survey her reflection with satisfaction. This separation from her husband had done wonders for her that five years of exercise and weight watchers hadn't with loads less money ...
