I have enjoyed writing as far back as I can recall being able to write.  I wrote a great deal of shorts and poetry as a teen.  As an adult I have authored several educational courses and technical training courses.  I have an B.S. in PSychology.  I have an A.A. in Psychology and also in Interior Design as well as certification in Adult Training and Financial Database Dpecialization.  I have held a wide range of jobs over the years that mainly fall into computer technology, accounting, education, human services, social services, or interior design fields.  I have had been writing articles online 7 years ago and I was enjoying this, articles can be found at Yahoo's new version Assoiciated Content as well as other online content sites.  (They are pretty old now).  My true passion in writing is in the historical and historical fiction genres.  I also love Sci-fi memoirs, biographies, psychological theories, and philosophy.  This is just a few interests. Major influences include Letiticia Pilkington, and all other outlandish and otherwise scandalous women of the 18th and 19th century.  Infact, most of my influences would simply be figures from history so I will leave it at that and save you the boring list.  As far as modern writers go I am influenced by anything that is well written and makes me wish I had written it! The biggest influence in my life would be my grandmother who was a lifelong school teracher and always encourage me to follow my passion for education and writing.  My major motivation for writing comes from the belief that we must not forget our past.  We are linked to it in such a marvelous way, it is our heritage and tells use who we are as a civilization and where we may be going in the future.  I revel in finding people time has forgotten and cherishing their memory.  The past has an endless amount of surprise and interest and is one of the main reason I love to write about it. I have taken writing back up after a very long absence over the last seven years.  I was busy raising children and life just somehow de-railed me from the one thing that kept me centered and feeling content.  I am completely rusty and out of shape but you have to start again somwhere.
