My interest in writing began when I was very young. I wrote poetry and stories, always dreaming of being an author, although I did not have the confidence I needed to try.
At age 77 I had my first book, BASHFUL the SHY PUPPY, published. My dream of becoming an author came true. Always remember no one is ever too old for their dreams to come true.
My youth was spent in the small town of Alexandria, Ohio. It is a place I dearly love. How I wish life could be like that still!
I recently reside in Wellston, Ohio. Have been married 58 years, have 3 children,6 grandchildren, and 2 great grandchildren.
Was employed at Alexandria Elementary as a cook for 27 years. Working with those children was a job I so enjoyed.
My desire has always been to make people smile, laugh and be happy. hoping to bring a small amount of joy to everyone.
Be with us, guide us, and direct us, in Jesus name we pray. Amen
