I lived in Port Hueneme, California until the age of 11 when Daddy retired and moved us to Arkansas. I married when I was 19 and had 3 wonderful children, two boys and a girl. After 20 years, we divorced and a few years later I married again (and lived happily ever after!). I now have 12 beautiful grandchildren that make my life complete. I have written a few short stories, a couple of children's books (which I am trying to get published, with no luck yet), many poems and several songs. I love writing!   

The only award I've received for my writing is the Editor's Choice Award from the International Library of Poetry for 'Night'. I have received several awards for singing and photography.
