I am a registered nurse who has always had the desire to write. Many years ago, I had started a book, but became discouraged, so I just shelved it.  Now I have decided to try again.  My grandchildren have been my inspiration in writing children’s books.

In my nursing career, I achieved many certifications such as CEN (Certified ER nurse)
CCRN (Certifed Critical Care Nurse) CLNC (Certified Legal Nurse Consultant) and HCAFA (Health Care Anti-Fraud Associate)

I also have become certified by the State of Florida Department of Elder Affairs, to instruct on the teachings of Alzheimer's Disease to the professional.

In my college years, I was in the Who's Who which was quite a long time ago, but non the less, was an honor.

I have also achieved academic scholarships while attending school.

Right now, my focus has been twofold. I work as a nurse and write in my spare time. With my nursing job I work with caregivers of patients that are caring for a loved one that is going through the dying process. I have walked those shoes; therefore this has become a passion for me. I can hardly wait until I start working on other books. I presently have one in the editing process, a chapter book. As soon as that is done, then I hope to have that book available at the beginning of 2009. In the meantime, I plan to continue to work on my other children's books and get them ready for publishing.

This tells a little about myself and the books that I have written. I have written other books, but have not sumitted them for publication. I am very new to this world and have found that it takes time to get published . I have also heard that patience a virtue to acquire? Don't we all need to learn that? We live in a world that we want things done yesterday!!!
