I never thought of myself as a writer until I have experienced Domestic Violence in my marriage. There were times where I could not leave my home due to stalking, car tampering and a leg injury. Shortly after my separation, I felt a higher power interject itself into me. This higher power overtook me and forced me to write down words it placed in my mind.
This higher power forced me to write but I could not control it. If I did not write the words on paper, the higher power that was in me, would interrupt me. This higher power would interrupt my thoughts, daily routines and would interrupt my sleep with words in my head that would not leave my mind until I have written them down on paper. I became amazed of what was written on the paper by the higher power, who used me, to write them. I learned to embrace the words of my higher power and accepted the fact that my pen was going to become my best friend.
I believe that my higher power has written the words through me to help others. Since then, my higher power, along with myself, have written about three books which are not published as of yet. It became clear to me that my calling was to write! I have learned from my past experiences and have created a website to help women in problem relationships.
