The fortunate inherit riches, prestige, positive notoriety. Those not so lucky bear legacies filled with poverty, infamy or, worse yet, the unhinged insanity and murderous urges of their ancestors.
"What is straight? A line can be straight, or a street, but the human heart, oh, no, it's curved like a road through mountains."
Tennessee Williams
Background
Information
I have been writing for as long as I can remember, but it wasn't until a college professor pointed out that writers are a kind of witness to the world that I started collecting stories, narratives, and writing memoir. We are witnesses to our experience. Some of my major influences have been: Alice Walker, Janet Frame, Toni Morrison, Lillian Hellman.
