I was born and adopted in what I call the other backward state in the USA, New Jersey. This is because they do not have a state run registry either. Then I married, and moved to the other backward state, the one I now call home... North Carolina. Someday all of the states will get it right, and allow all adults access to their own original vital record. My writing is motivated by adoption. Adoption right now and possibly the next few years is my absolute PASSION

I became a mother to a daughter at 20 and again to a son at 22. Became a grandmother to 3 lovely grandsons over the years. Those are my Achievements. My Awards are that I have been a Licensed Practical Nurse, have worked at three major Nuclear Plants as a computerized draftperson and now do SAS Programming.
