Hello. My name is Alexa and writing is my passion. I'm working on a novel (one of the many I hope to write) but I still make time to write articles and short stories and even poetry when the mood strikes. I hope you enjoy my work and thank you for reading.
+ more bio informationAfter having my son, I've struggled with my weight. I lose it for a few months then I gain it back. I hate diet pills and so I don't take them. I rather exercise and eat well. And while I enjoy exercising, it's not so much fun working-out alone. Therefore, I've had to try different things to keep myself motivated and moving.... More..
A best friend is someone that knows you well, understands you (or at least tries to), and someone you can really, truly trust. I can't say my ex and I are best friends because he doesn't know everything about me, nor I of him (and I think that's for the best!). He didn't try to understand me while we were together so I don't... More..
Lex really didn't know what to expect that morning. She dressed in a hurry and walked back and forth in the living room, knowing all too well he was already on the road coming to see her. Could this be true? She wondered. She tried eating breakfast but her stomach was in knots. It had been six months of waiting and finally t... More..
Children with disciplinary problems are "crying out" for some boundaries, compassion and understanding. Many of us give up before we even try. Sometimes it's just easier to give in, isn't it? But the damage begins to show quickly and before we know it, we've lost all control. As adults, we must set clear and concise ground r... More..
Before my husband went to war, our marriage was in trouble. We no longer talked to each other or even gazed in each other's eyes. We lived with shattered dreams and a whole lot of resentment. It didn't keep us warm at night but at least we had the illusion. While he was gone, I prayed he would return the man I fell in love w... More..
Many people have turned to homeschooling for different reasons. Some decide due to their religious beliefs, others due to the fact that the school system somehow failed their children, and others due to their belief that they can give their children a much better education at home. Whatever the reason, the ultimate goal is t... More..
It was one of those bad days. The baby had diarrhea and it was everywhere. And I mean everywhere! On the couch, in the crib and on my fingers! The crying just wouldn't stop no matter how much I tried to comfort and sooth. My head was pounding and I felt as if my brain would explode. I hurt my toe racing for the phone and din... More..
When I first met Luisa at a dinner party to honor some of my husband's coworkers, I didn't know what to make of her. She was absolutely beautiful to look at. Her hair was flawless, her dress was smashing, and her posture ensued confidence. It was easy to be jealous of a woman like her, but I was drawn to her. My eyes followe... More..
That morning, my mother made me put on a fancy silk shirt and slacks. She knew she couldn't put a skirt on me. My legs just didn't look right in skirts or dresses. But it was picture day and my mother wanted pictures of the daughter she had given birth to and not some girl in a baseball cap with dirt on her face. As you coul... More..
As a child, I was mostly living in my own world. I made up stories to make up for the lack of adventure or to hide from the pain I felt growing up without a father. I learned, from his absence, that I was nothing. If my own father didn't want me, what else did it mean? I didn't know what it was like to have a positive man in... More..
