I started writing on Helium about two years ago. Although, I haven't done as much as I would like, I do have a love for writing. Writing for revelance, however, is my ideal plan. Whether it is something funny, quirky, or serious, I hope everyone enjoys my submissions.

My passion is ...

a good book and gardening.

I know too much about ...

Healthcare!

My parents always told me ...

go out and play, because I was always in the house reading and talking to grown folks.

My childhood ambition ...

was to be the best singer.

My favorite memory ...

purchasing my first home and getting my first dog, Dollie, two days later.

Why I write ...

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

Slow & easy old school R&B. Reading a new thriller. Watching Hell's Kitchen.

My first job ...

was chopping cotton.

My best moment ...

When I finished my bachelor and masters degrees.

My inspiration ...

is life and all of its twist and turns.

Relationships & Family > Family Dysfunction Breaking the cycle of abuse
