About Me

I've been reading since I taught myself when I was four and that is also when I realized I wanted to be a writer. It was only in the last year, though, that I've really had a chance to find my voice. I took a few years of English Literature studies at the University of Missouri-St. Louis and found that I did no writing but what they told me and nothing was ever creative. This was not who I wanted to be and I decided that I had had enough. I tried to start a career in the mortgage business (thinking that money is what is important after I got married) and learned something about myself... I have no business being in business. My husband has a successful job and his biggest gift to me has been to let me quit that job and stay home. That was almost a year ago. Since then I have been the happiest person I could ever be. My husband, family, friends, neighbors and even the mailman can see that I am finally doing what I was meant to do. I wake up every morning and get on my computer and my husband has to physically drag me to bed every night. I've discovered voices in my head I never imagined and they are all clambering to get out. My fingers can't travel over the keyboard fast enough. All I have ever wanted was to write, and now all I want is to have people read what I've written. girls layout @ http://www.freeuniquelayouts.com/ - Movie Layouts - Music Layouts - More MySpace Layouts! - MySpace Tools

I would like to meet other writers, readers, agents and publishers. I'd also like to meet anyone that needs help to develop their work or would like to offer me any advice on how to be successful.

What Ton Didn't See by M. Marie Zinkl
