: About Me

I'm a 31 year old mother of three wonderful children. I've lived with my share of heartache, and I've lived through it. Heartache isn't all bad, because with the perfect life, what would I've learned from? Where would I find the passion to write?

I've just adjusted from writing novels to writing articles, and let me tell you, there is a big difference! You have a shorter span of time to capture and keep your reader. It's a great challenge and I am enjoying learning.

My favorite quote... though it's old and completely played out... "What doesn't kill me only makes me stronger."

My passion is ...

my kids and writing

I know too much about ...

The heartaches that come with life.

My parents always told me ...

That my imagination was going to run away with me... well, mom dad you were right. It has.

My childhood ambition ...

To become a writer.

My favorite memory ...

being chased by my brother after I hit him in the face with my purse. Hilarious store... keep your eye out, you may read about it soon.

Why I write ...

Because I breathe, I live. As long as I do those two things, I will write.

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

Gary Allan telling me he "Just Can't Do It Today."

My first job ...

was with Waffle House.

My best moment ...

When all three of my kids were born.

My inspiration ...

My kids. What better way to teach them they can do anything then to fulfill my dream?

Her voice thick with anger.. Somewhere he'd missed something, but damned if he'd admit that. He'd stay silent and see where she was going with this, though he was sure he knew. Thrusting his hands into his jeans pockets,...
