Good Day, Fellow Writers!

I am a freelance writer. I graduated from the University of TX at San Antonio with a BA in English Literature. I am a student of LongRidgeWriters group, successfully completing the Writing for Children course and currently enrolled in the Breaking into Print writing course. I am happy to say that I have already broken into "print" via the online medias of iParenting.com and Associated Content.

I am a passionate mom with three beautiful children and I have been married for eight years and counting. I have had many interesting challenges as a parent. I've gone from being a homemaker, a working mother, and then a homemaker again. Each phase was a definite emotional roller coaster ride and, folks, I'm still riding.

Motherhood is challenging. My desire is to share my experiences with other mothers and fathers in the hope that I can offer some kind of assistance. In turn, I welcome the experiences of others because it is never too late to learn something new.

I have so much to say. I look forward to helping others and I look forward to working with the writers on Helium and gaining even more valuable writing experiences.

My passion is ...

writing (of course), reading, raising smart, confident children.

I know too much about ...

nothing. I'm always learning something new.

My parents always told me ...

if you have nothing nice to say, then say nothing!

My childhood ambition ...

was to be an actress and a photographer.

My favorite memory ...

having all my children and getting married. I got married first!

Why I write ...

to challenged myself and to encourage others.

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

I am listening to the classical music station-as I always do.

My first job ...

was at Pizza Hut, washing dishes.

My best moment ...

when my first article was accepted for publication.

My inspiration ...

my family and myself.

JuliannaMy Julianna is alive and beautiful,This I hardly believe could be,She is as lovely as possible,The little angel was sent to me.She brings me joy and happiness,This special baby of mine,It scares me so-I do confess,My love overwhelming at times.I think of the day when she will have her own life,With her own story to tell,I can only hope my guidance will ease her strife,And my mentor-ship leads her well.Julianna, Julianna, my new true love,My bright and shining star,You are a wonderful blessing from above,And the greatest one by far.
