Well, I have to admit I am inspired by MANY things. Mainly Star Trek, all versions. I also enjoy CSI and sometimes write about that. I write poetry and songs as well, I'm just learning to do the music part of that. As authors go I LOVE Dean Koontz, Stephen King, Mary Leaders, (you MUST read Triad and listen to Fleetwood Mac's Rhiannon, great together!) Vonda McIntyre, J.M. Dillard, and MANY others, these are just the very favorites because I could list all day! I'm a small town girl who doesn't like big towns. I had a rough childhood and a lot of my poetry reflects that. I am married to a terrific man, I wouldn't trade him for ANYTHING. I don't know what else to say! I hope you enjoy the things I post, I am sensitive about it.  

I've won 2 certificates for partition in a Fine Arts fair. I also received a plaque for taking 1st in Spanish poetry at Foreign language day. I've publish 2 articles in a local newspaper. And have received several internet awards for collages, poetry, stories, and art. (Does that count?)
