In the beginning a toddler with toy alphabet, chalkboard, and desk, then pencil and paper, a typewriter next. Then journal, pen, and an old weeping willow, and still today the story continues . . . Having been writing since the age of 3, the craft has been a passion of mine nearly my entire life, mechanics and form, not included. =) After having been told over and over again by professors, friends, and colleagues that writing is my gift, I've decided it's time to get real with it, truly work it, and allow stone to sharpen stone. Here's to dreams coming true! Cheers!
