There isn't much to tell about me. Everything I've accomplished has come late in my life. Going back to school to get a GED and then attend a local college. That is what sparked my writting career that led to the publishing of my first poetry book "Golden Memories" ISBN 1-4241-0072-0. I do have a second book "Kaleidoscope Of Life" that should be out in 2007. A mixture of poems and story poems. I can't forget the one person who inspired me to do these things, my husband Ted. Saddly, he passed away Sept 2, 2006. I feel fortunate to have had a marriage that lasted 36 years. I do truely miss him and I will keep writting the poems and stories he loved so much.
