About Me
I was told, in high school, that I should write. So far it's only been letters and e-mails. Now it's time to tell a story or two. I have been a mother, a grandmother, a sister, a friend. Now I am a writer. My mentor had me write a book about my life - a book that is currently in the editing stage. My "Mike & Leila" is the story I've always wanted to tell. Maybe here, maybe now - I will finally obey my high school teachers.

Stephen King says "to be a writer one must write" - so I do.
