I get personal satisfaction from making people chuckle and enlightening readers about the traits and experiences people around the world have in common.

Background
Information
|
|
I attended W.S.U. and graduated with a speech therapy/audiology degree. Not useful in my current line of work but came in handy when the kids were small. I write because I enjoy using my kids/husbands misdeeds and foolish pranks as fodder for my journal. I enjoy writing about my travels also. Bill Bryson is my hero.

I won ‘Honorary Mention’ for a story in the ‘Humor Press’ contest. The story was a thinly disguised portrayal of my mother in law and her ‘depression era’ saving habits.
Describe your second successful writing piece-I submitted a piece to an anthology that was eventually published as a book, it was a funny piece about my inept abilities with my computer.
