When I was a little girl I was very sad, lonely and unloved. I was raised by an abusive mother and step-father (read my book entitled "Mama and Us") and found peace in kind thoughts of other things, people and places. I wrote love letters to myself. I thought of words and brought them to life....and thus.... a writer is born.
I continued through life wondering why my life was the way it was, especially finding myself having to raise two children alone... when my then, husband decided to walk out on me at the tender age of twenty five. Thanks to God....my children are very much grown and successful, today. Later I would fall in love with a man that ended his life in a suicide, (read my book entitled, "Sucide-The Explosion Within")
Helen Keller wrote: Character can not be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trail and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired and success achieved.
You see, because of these experiences I am able to be the warm, loving, mature and compassionate woman that I believe myself to be today. In my writings I share, with the world, that life is full of wonder, and treasures for the soul, making life worth living; This can be seen in my poetry, (read "Poetic Thoughts From the Heart of a Woman" and Inner Vision's from the Heart), fictions... read my latest fictions ("To Catch a Kitten" and Love Beyond Innocence), non-fictions, as well as, my children's books (The Adventures of Herman and Rachael), soon to published in 2008. There are lessons to be learned and then valued.... in all walks of life.
"Remember to seek positivity in all manner of expression, no matter what the circumstance, and positive energy will be drawn to you."
Look for new novel coming this month called "The Color Of Love"....When you are not white or black enough.
Birth Place: Baltimore, MD
