: About Me

Greetings to you all from the South. I was born and raised in Georgia and have remained here for my adult life. I have always loved to write, even when I was a small child. There are always ideas flying around in my subconscious looking for an avenue to travel from brain to paper. Writing consoles me, even if it's not very good.

And you ask how can that happen? Fathers are adults and enjoy adult activities and children, of course, enjoy doing children's activities.
