I am a 35 year old single parent and writing of all forms has been a life long passion; it has been both therapy and safe haven, the medium through which I have explored both my triumphs and tragedies, little hurts and larger joys. It was through my poetry that my spiritual need and yearnings began to surface, and I found God patiently waiting for me after my many rebellious years away from his comfort and guidence. I work full time, and quietly cherish the hope that I will one day be able to write full time.
