I am a crazy Mother to 3 teenage girls, and I write dark poetry and twisted tales to keep me sane in an insane world.
Background
Information
Hmm, I hate this part. OK, about me. Well I write dark poetry about things I see around me. I love to write about things that others may not always see. I enjoy writing short stories with a twist, I like the surprise element in a story..
My main influences have to be Stephen King and James Herbert.
I write to keep myself sane in an insane world. My escape from the world when I was a child has stayed with me into my adult life, and I hope, as every writer does, to one day be able to be good enough to sell that writing to others to enjoy.
Accomplishments
I have had one book published, and that was my own autobiography. It was published by Jaded Silence Press, and is available to buy from Lu-Lu. It is called My Side by Lina Young. A tale of my life from birth to now. A story of abuse, incest, love, betrayal, and just about everything else that you would find in a Jerry Springer show! I do write books, though I have yet to finish one besides the autobiography.
