Type or paste your background here I have wanted to become a published author since I was a child. It was not until I focused my writing on God that my dream came true. I am a recovering alcoholic and drug addict with fourteen years of sobriety. I gave my life to Christ in 1999 and plan to continue writing spiritually based books. I am also a songwriter, and plan to expand my business to include publishing other writers. I have a B. S. in secondary English from The Ohio State University, and I live in Columbus, Ohio, with my four children--Khalil, Asha, Jelani, and Nandi. I like to shop, decorate, and travel.
