Bio
I've been writing as long as I could hold a crayon! Remember writing my first story like it was yesterday at 5. I remember the details of the day, location, time, excitement & where the story was preserved for all time! Lots Born From That!

~Grandma's Time!~
~Grandma's Time!~ I sat on the floor at the end of the bed throughout the nights, of the beginning of the end! I sat on the floor by her side as the good servant girl, (and grand-daughter) called forth by God was asked to do! And I watched in silence as her soul battled the sins of the world within her. Whether to fight to live a little longer or not? The weight of the sins of the world (the one she had lived through and all that she had seen) were upon her shoulders, and this I could see. For to many years she did to much for others by all that had been pressed upon her in that life... and well it just could not be made undone! But as sure as I write these words if there could have been a way that I could have changed things for her, make her life a better, easier, happier, less tragic, worrisome and stressful one I certainly would have gladly done it!

~This Old Heart Of Mine!~
~ This Old Heart Of Mine!~ (2nd poem honoring the memory of life and legacy of the actor Heath Ledger, whom I was supposed to meet in Alberta but something happened to get in the way of that event! I never go a day wondering if Brad Pitt, Angie and I would all be thinking IF YOU 2 HAD MET would he STILL BE ALIVE Today? And that's when I came to realize and understand that living to be alive in the world means something different to everyone in this world. And I wanted to write something that shared how I have come to understand it, and how that makes his life force mean that he is with me always, so there is no more need to mourn, or feel sorrow and too much sadness! To reach him I just have to FEEL what he tells my heart and mind when I'm writing and/or just thinking of him! And having bought a Knight in honor of that representation of SHIELD of ARMOUR, I need only look at that to FEEL the affects of the Armour and the relationship that LIVES ON just like the representation of how long the Knight I bought will last and stand on guard for the both of us and everyone touched by his life and his movies!) From that I was recently finally able to finish the following poem! I hope you Enjoy it! :-)

~We went for a walk!~
~We went for a walk!~ Let me back up a little bit and rewind time and help put this story into the right perspective! I can remember when I first discovered learning how to write letters using, crayons, markers and pencils! As soon I could start writing actual WHOLE WORDS I kinda went a little crazy! I mean there is normal growth and learning, curiousity and creativity, and I was always smart enough to be aware of the other children around me the same age who were going through those normal growing and learning stages! But then there was a thing called Jennifer's phase, that's where I recognized the difference between them and me, I could see and understand the line between their side and where I was in my mind and how I WAS FEELING about the experience of discovering the wonderful world of letters, writing, reading and books!

~My Biography! Titled: Raped In!~
From the Book Titled: Raped In! (Emotional Covert Incest, A Subject not Talked about Nearly Enough! And where Countries everywhere are to complacent to do anything about it and put in effective laws to help SAVE lives, help change things, and make things better, give people more opportunity and chances to have good lives, that all good human's are deserving of! And if they EVER DO FINALLY MAKE A LAW... I would like it to be called Jennifer's Law! In honor of the sacrifice and the price I've paid and my 2 children have paid, and the other children I NEVER HAD because of it! Spending my life living in it, (the disease that consumes happiness, and normalness in family life) where no justice ever took place. Where I was only able to write this book about it, to help set the precedent and standard of changes in the laws around families, not just domestic relationships between couples and their children that is multi-generational overdue that I PRAY writing this WILL finally Produce so others growing up in the world won't have to live through the same thing!)

~Fahrenheit 451!~ Telling the Truth!
~Fahrenheit 451!~ Young Ray uses machine imagery to construct the setting & environment of the book, making it masculine in form and attraction. There is no thought of invitation to Women as readers in his world! Ironically, this only leaves me with the recommendation to stick to his TV Show!

~The Book Club!~
August 11th, 2023! The Book Club! It never grows old and we never grow tireless of it! 🙂 The problem with today is that because we’ve changed into such a fast paced, let’s get everything done NOW world, it has displaced some of us people known as READERS and writers! So now it is much harder to find the time to keep up on the reading of the books we’d like to have accomplished within a certain amount of time! And with all the changes in technology it has brought us to a very difficult place and time in our lives, with the awkwardness of what to do about our options around our beloved, glorious habit of books?
