|   | Gender: | Female | | Birthday: | July 17 1982 | | Location: | California | | About Me: | I grew up in L.A. with my sister & my mom(my parents divorced early). I went to a huge HS and had a lot of friends, most of whom I am still in touch with via FB. My mom moved us up to the sticks when I was 17 and I rebelled by becoming a door2door salesgirl. That was a crazy life so I left for college in Monterey where I met my hubby. We moved around, married & had 3 kids in 4 years. We've been through some rough times and are now getting on our feet. I was a coffee shop mgr & now I stay at home | | Type of Writer: | I write a lot of poetry & fictional short stories incl. some flash fiction. I hope to write a novel one day. | | Writing Style: | I am very descriptive, I wear my heart on my sleeve both in life & in my writing.
