Biography

I was told don’t wait to heal. Write to heal. I have been writing ever since. What a gift my now deceased father in law gave me. I believe he too knew the extend I would search to practice this. So here I am. An author, writer, poet, novelist and journalist, I play to be. Published now seven times with this book “Tush.” Never would I imagine I could accomplish this and benefit so much from my pen. Clearly, like many I have had such agonizing ways to which I met myself and questionable ways to which my patience let me find myself.

To the new writer I say this. Don’t do it if it’s forced, only if you truly love it. Write everyday. Write emotions and places in never before found, and with colours only you have seen. Write from the heart and think nothing of editing. Write knowing there is no perfection and write for others as much as yourself. Write while learning something new about yourself in every sentence. Write because you have to. If any of these feel safe and familiar, you are and love to write. Me too.

I’ll repeat this; when I write, I search for the romantic part of me and mix it with the down to earth girl walking that pavement every day. I have only just begun.

Smashwords Interview

Do you remember the first story you ever wrote?
Yes it was about a turtle and a pelican. Don't remember what happened but I was thrilled to show my mom. Wish I had a copy of that now. Oh, and the name was friends and water wings LOL
What is your writing process?
I certainly cannot force a content to write about. Despite the dry spells prompts come to me suddenly and quickly. I do not map out my chapters and instead just sit down and write as if I was talking to you directly

30 collections of moments from my mind's world. As a child my favourite play time was to imagine. My imagination took me places no one else knew about, places that were fairy tales and places I actually created. They were always places of fun. As a woman at 45 I still thrive on my imagination to work the same way. I hope this touches your imagination in a way maybe it has not been.

    I am not sure how Mark pulls at my heart strings all the while creating the part of me I did not know was there. A call to importance and thrust of dignity, his humility and softness kept me wanting more. Certainly one great author and can’t wait to see what is next. This book should be enjoyed and felt by everyone. Thank you for the experience Mark!
