Writing is a way to allow others to live and feel things they may never feel. To entertain with distraction and to create thoughts that hopefully push that individual to success or just to a happy day.
I taught martial arts for thirty years and worked an emergency room for nine years. I was also an EMT, so I have been exposed to the consequences of bad choices and also the possible horrible things that can happen to anyone here on earth. I like to write things that may help someone with positive words and stories. Words are powerful.
My first story, that I can remember writing was when I was a kid. My mother and I wrote a scary vampire short story. I don't think we finished it because it scared me too much to write it. She laughed and I knew I could create images that travel into people and their worlds. The internet caused me to start writing again. Since the only way of communication was to write, I became very fluent in story telling.
I have written in all genre's with success. The success was not in sales it was in the satisfaction of those that read my writings. Stop into my world for a moment. Read a few things or ask for something to be written.
Words are ...life :: and life needs to be lived.
