: About Me

I am 41 years old, married, with an 11-year-old son. I have just recently found my passion with writing a few years ago. I even took a writing course from "Jerry Jenkin's 'Christian Writers Guild.'" I hope someday to write a novel, but right now, I am just getting some experience in and I thought Helium.com would help with that.

My passion is ...

writing, reading, drawing

I know too much about ...

I am always reading to learn more.

My parents always told me ...

that you can do anything you want as long as you put your mind to it.

My childhood ambition ...

I never really had a childhood ambition. But since the last few years I've wanted to write a novel.

My favorite memory ...

graduating from high school and the birth of my son.

Why I write ...

To find out about myself, express my thoughts, learn more about this world

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

"Days of Our Lives," "Passions," "The Young and the Restless," "The Bold and the Beautiful," "Ghost Whisperer," "Las Vegas," "Supernatural." John Grisham, Stephen King, Joyce Meyer, T.D. Jakes, Jerry Jenkins, Tim LaHaye, Laura Ingalls Wilder.

My first job ...

hairstylist at Third Dimension Cuts in Boise, ID

My best moment ...

The day I realized I wanted to be a writer.

My inspiration ...

God, my husband, my son, my mother.
