About Me

This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!
I grew up in Katy, Texas which was a small rice farming community outside of Houston. Being the typical Tomboy I could often be found climbing trees in my Sunday dress, fishing or besting the boys in target shooting contests. After outgrowing the knobby knees, bruises and braces my interests led me to dance. Exiting high school I could have easily been voted most likely to confuse the Hell outta everybody! I was the 'swan' who performed in Drill Team with flawless precision but also sat in Architecture class in a satin skirt on pep rally days with all the boys and failed Home Economics on purpose because my parents made me take it instead of Wood Shop. Fast forward few hundred years and here we are. Bringing with those years the spunk of a southern girl and angst that comes with age, four kids and two exes later, I picked up a pen and wrote creatively for the first time in 2006. My writing is only as good as the talent and voices that can breathe life into it. There is BIG talent out there and they are gracious...As I said before, pull up a chair, pour a glass of whatever but leave the boots at the door!Thanks for stopping by!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who "GET IT". Life is made up of moments, stories, history. Those who see the big picture and realize that it is painted using small strokes.

An apology for a friend who made his wife buy dinner!

Her corn silk hair dances In this salty breeze   Sun screened, sandy toes Brush my knee   She may sit in silence at the moment But her thoughts will run a mile Then there's that smile ...
