About me

My name is Shannon Lynn Farlouis and I love to write poetry and prose. I also write recipes, and health articles. I am 40 years old and I am a life long resident of Louisiana. I am a proud graduate of the 1988 class of Independence High School. During my high school years I was a member of the English club and the Independence High School Band in which I played the Clarinet. After high school I furthered my education by attending Hammond Area Vocational School and was a certified state and national Emergency Medical Technician. I have also attended and completed Computerized Basic Accounting at the Area Health Educational Center. I attended Southeastern Louisiana University for one year in Psychology. I am one of the proud writers of Triond, Bukisa, Associated Content, and Helium. I currently reside in Hammond, Louisiana with my two children, Taylor and Kaitlynn. I would like to thank all my educators throughout my life who has made my writing career possible.
