I'm Karla. I never thought I would be a writer when I was thinking of what to do when I grew up.But ever since I joined the Mary Poppins Reading Club, I've been hooked. Writing is cathartic therapy. I'm proud and grateful to be a published author.To get to the good stuff, go straight to My Demented Humor Folder. This contains excerpts from my book, Dog-Almighty!But be warned, it's not for the squeemish or pious.Karla
