* I've been writing since I was 12 years old.
My first poem was titled, "Rockhounds." It was inspired by my dad,
who collected rocks, minerals
and gems. He use to take our family on what my sisters and I thought were great treasure
hunts.
* I've written numerous poems and stories throughout the years. I never really pursued writing as a career until recent years, so most are put away in a box unpublished. However,
by God's grace and favor, some were.
