I have to say my major influences were these wonderful books that had put a smile onto my many frowns or simply warming my heart. I had always desired on becoming a writer, as one could say it was a dream of mine from young on. I mainly started writing from my broken heart and after living through an abusive marriage. My articles about domestic violence are on other sites. I have always loved to write, as it was my get away to drift off into a magical world for a brief moment and hope that the hero came to save the day. I sure come to discover throughout the rough years, that life is not picture perfect, as one might have dreamed it to be. Cheating had always been a number one subject while abuse was spreading and teen pregnancy had become an epidemic. At this point, I wrote down everything that I had encountered and dealt with all this and finally I had a book before my own eyes. No matter how hopeless my dreams at the time might have seemed to be, with many awful setbacks I endured, one thing was for sure. I was not alone in this life, and many people have faced similar issues. Therefore, I would not give up, and became a writer with a story to tell. Furthermore, I always had the greatest dream too ever come true and love of a lifetime.
