Writing was my first love. I started dashing off stories and poems while still in grade school, and I have kept at it my entire life. While all I ever wanted to be was a writer, my life's journey led me down a different path. I've worked in a corporate environment my entire career and I'm a certified PMP (Project Management Professional). I've had a busy and interesting life so far. I've raised two children and have two grandchildren. I currently have full-time care of my toddler granddaughter, and she keeps me on my toes and happy. My published works include some online credits and publication in most of the area newspapers.
