I am a homemaker with 7 beautiful children and engaged to the most wonderful man in the world. Writer and published Poetess are just two of the many hats I wear. "Disguised", In My Children's Eyes", and "Poetry Expressed" are three of my most recently published poems.
Current writing projects include content, resume, and several children's books. Backburner projects include, but not limited to, are my first romance novel & teen fiction. Writing is a special outlet that allows me to explore and express myself. The more I write, the more I learn about myself. Every time I create a new character I learn something new - which I love - fresh knowledge.
I started writing when I was eight years old and very shy, longing to be heard, but afraid to speak out loud. No longer that shy, I bare my soul at least once every day.

Our recycling program in Sanilac County led me to start the Sanilac Free 2 All since we did not have a freecycle group for that area at that time. Our group meets at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sanilacfree2all/

In hopes of reuniting my school class of '88' from Madison High in Madison Heights Michigan, I also created the MH Coffee Klatch group. It's dedicated in memory to one of my favorite teachers, Ms. Habermann, who inspired me many times to get my "butt in gear", as she used to say. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MHCoffeeKlatch/
