I was a freelance journalist for 5 years before having my second child and deciding to become an at home mom. I love to write so I decided why not continue writing articles for sites such as Helium. I was young poet of the year for three years running and have had more pieces published than I can remember. Writing is my passion and I try to write as often as possible.
My passion is ...
my wiriting and my children
I know too much about ...
useless stuff LOL
My parents always told me ...
don't do it if you can't do it right
My childhood ambition ...
was to be a journalist
My favorite memory ...
when i found out I was pregnant with my son-tried for 5 years to have him!
Why I write ...
I write to get rid of my stress. Pouring my heart out into my writing is the only way I know to relax.
What I am reading/watching/listening to ...
I listen to country or classical. I have certain homemade cd's that I listen to that have an odd combo of beethoven and shania twain. I read everything I can get my hands on.
My first job ...
I began hostessing in a resteraunt when I was 13. I have worked ever since.
My best moment ...
Last Christmas when I finished ghost writing my first book and saw it in print.
My inspiration ...
My kids are my inspiration, when I get frustarated they keep me going.
