Personal reflections:
I can’t live without: my family, writing, my writing buddies, strawberries with nonfat whipped topping, chocolate and Twinings
Four Red Fruits tea or vanilla black tea.
I love to: walk, meet new friends, dance, roller-skate, oil paint and travel.
Writing is like: running full speed down a new path full of twists and turns.
My hope is: That you enjoy my stories and find your own truth in them.
My best moment: It hasn’t come yet. But it will be great!
I believe in: living strong, determined and full speed ahead.
My vow: to never put the .38 in the saddle bag without drawing it, and to never forget the black moment or the golden ending.
