About Me |
|
| I am 54 years old, married to a wonderful man. We live in Statesville, NC. I work a full time job in the area and am a part time writer. I am orginally from Maine but spent most of my life traveling througout the United States until the last 20 years.I went back to school and got my high school diploma in 2004 and then on to college for a year. I graduated with a Office System Technology certicate in 2004.I started writing my book, "Living Nightmares of Abuse" in 2003 and finished it in 2004. My book was published with PublishAmerica in 2006 and released in January of this year,2006.Now, I am writing my second book titled "I Thought I Saw a Little Person". It is a fiction fantasy. My book will contain several illustrations. I am in hopes to have it published in the near future. Your Power Color Is Blue Relationships and feelngs are the most important things to you. You are empathetic and accepting - and good at avoiding conflict. If someone close to you is in pain, it makes you hurt as well. You try to heal the ones you love with your kind and open heart.

My Interests |
|
| Writing is my first love. My book, Living Nightmares of Abuse, was released January 30th of this year.
I am currently writing a fiction fantasy. If I am not working on my new book, I am usually writing articles to publish on the Internet. I like to read good books, mostly non-fiction but have been known to read other genre. I enjoy spending time playing ball with my dogs outside or cooking on the fire pit. I like spending quality time talking or drinking beer with my husband in his Harley shack or out by the fire in the evening. Sipping on a glass of wine after dusk, sitting outside in the peace and quiet--Letting the warm breeze brush by my face and gently blow back my hair. Watching my fruit trees as they come alive in the spring with blossoms and caring for them as the fruit begins to grow. I also enjoy weeding in my beautiful flower garden of lilies. You Should Be a Film Writer You don't just create compelling stories, you see them as clearly as a movie in your mind. You have a knack for details and dialogue. You can really make a character come to life. Chances are, you enjoy creating all types of stories. The joy is in the storytelling. And nothing would please you more than millions of people seeing your story on the big screen! What Type of Writer Should You Be? |
