Let's Imagine

Using Your Imagination leads to CREATIVITY..Creativity leads to EXPRESSION..Expression leads to FREE

About Me

Most authors bio's are written by someone else. I, on the other hand, prefer to do it myself, since I know myself better, than anyone. I was born in Tucson and was raised in Mammoth, Arizona. Growing up in this small mining town, there was not much to do or places to go. All I really had was my imagination and dreams. Spending most of my summers (and year round:)by the river and at the Funny Mountains (they had funny shapes and "faces" to them) was the best part of growing up. Running around, getting dirty, running through the one sprinkler we had in the yard and making forts (which were two or three pieces of wood, hammered together up in a mesquite tree) as long as you could sit on it, it was a fort. This was the highlight of my youth. Being able to be barefoot and run through the mud, the hot dirt and let my thoughts wonder freely.......I have been writing since I was in the first grade and I haven't stopped since. Most of my works are Poetry, Short Stories, Children's Stories, Life Experiences, Feelings, Emotions and of course, Humor. Since I really didn't have anyone to share my thoughts with at a young age, I became best friends with a paper and pencil. I would constantly daydream about my future and of places that were of non-existance.I let my imagination run and it finally ran into a publishing company that is acknowledging what I write. I am very greatful and thankful for never giving up my dream of becoming a published author and will continue to write as long as I possibly can.My joy is to have children and EVERYONE take a look at my book(s) and escape into their own world of creativity and open their mind to any possibilities......BOOK RELEASED ON: June 5, 2007!! AUDIO RELEASED ON: JUNE 15, 2007!
