I was born Roshonda Parker and I'm originally from a small farm town in Arkansas.  I graduated from the University of Arkansas school system with a degree in Criminal Justice.  The past ten years I've worked in public service and non-profit.        My long-time passion has always been writing.  Growing up, I would make up stories and pretend I was one of the characters.  Raised by my grandparents, my grandmother was a teacher and stressed reading, education, and using proper language.         Following my heart, I've published my debut novel, Decisions.  I aspire to write stories that people can relate.  Exposing the good and bad in life, causing individuals to re-evaluate themselves and make necessary adjustments within their lives.   I currently lives in the Dallas-Fort Worth area with her dog, Panda.
