Basic Information about Me

I am a mother of 3 and grandmother of 3 who loves to write.  I have an M.Ed. from The Ohio State University at Lima in Elementary Education.  I steward the US Elections channel on Helium.com and write the majority of my articles in the politics channel.  I have many interests, however, and write often in many of the channels here.  I have sold several articles, some on Marketplace and some as stock content.  I have also illustrated a Children's book that is trying to get published. 

I write to please my Savior and because I must.  I hope you all enjoy the posts here.  I love getting feedback, so give me a nudge any time.

What I Like to Write About

I love to write on the things that interest me.  I have almost 200 articles under Politics, News & Issues; over a hundred in Health & Fitnes, Relationship & Family, and Society & Lifestyle;  almost a hundred in Education, Religion & Spirituality, Creative Writing and Arts & Humanities;  I also like to write in Parenting & Pregnancy (37 articles);  I have at least one article in each of Helium's main Channels. 

 

You can tell I like to write in many subjects.  Sometimes I have to stretch myself and do some research, but I enjoy seeing those articles rise in the ratings, especially when I had to learn about the subject to write about it.  This keeps my mind and writing skills stretched out and ready.

My Articles on Helium

  • While the words "under God" are not necessary in order for one to be a patriot, they are there for a reason.

I seem to have fallen away from working on my zone!  In the hustle of everyday and the crises that come, it's easy to neglect things in your life.  Part of my problem is my eclectic interests.  Rather than focusing on one or two things, I overload and overwhelm myself trying to do it all. 

Why do human beings do that to themselves?  We want it all, don't we?
