About Me

I am happily married for 5 years to a fellow journalist. I have four, yes four, children: My Angel, Bunny, 14; Alakina, 4; the twins, Micah and Magnolia, 2. I've always been a writer and in high school began my life as a journalist. I've been a reporter ever since, for The Dallas Morning News, The New York Times and People Newsapapers, but recently more off than on since I've been having my babies. No worries tho, I'm done having kids now. :)www.hisgirlfriday.blogspot.commyspace graphics & layouts
