: About Me

I am a wife, a mother of four, and a writer. Although I don't have any writing credentials as of yet, or educational credentials, I am highly qualified with many credentials about life experiences. My life experiences come in volumes. I can become quite the passionate writer when the topic is about life.
My writing has always been put on the back burner as I've struggled to make ends meet. A year ago, I became unemployed and my husband suggested that I devote my time to my writing. We still struggle but for the first time in my life, I am taking my writing seriously and doing what I was meant to do. When God gives us a gift, we are meant to use that gift.
As a Christian writer, I have a Christian novel in the works about relationship and marriage values. I also have a Civil War trilogy in the making.
My ambition is to become a successful writer, giving the glory to God, and give inspiration and hope, along with good and entertaining reading, to my readers.

It can help answer those questions that nag at us, such as "Who am I?" and "What is my purpose?" The soul search is a journey, and one very well worth taking. The destination is Imagination Land.
