Welcome! I'm really happy that you could stop by for a minute or two. Relax, make yourself comfortable while we get acquainted. I was born and raised in a small town in western Pennsylvania called Donora--Home of Champions. (At least that's what the banner says as you drive across the Monongahela river into what we lovingly call the Valley.)
Writing has been a passion of mine since I was a young girl when I found out that I could get folks to listen to me when I told my stories. Well, some folks didn't quite appreciate my creativity back then, but by the time I reached high school, I knew that I would someday become a writer. Remember 'back in the day,' the main form of communication was the letter {not that we didn't have telephones, but they were only used in case of an emergency, sort of like a fire extinguisher}, and the biggest decision we had to make was how to send it--Airmail or Regular! Wow that brings back memories! That's how I honed my skills, writing letters to grand parents, cousins and friends who had been shipped off to camp.
I must admit that I was a closet writer for many years because I feared rejection. Can you imagine that? However, I thank God that I wound up in a place that specializes in eliminating fears--St. James AME Church in Newark, New Jersey. Through the women's ministry, I was able to get back to what I love to do--write. Only this time, writing about spiritual growth and spiritual awareness and spiritual prosperity are the things that I put pen to paper.
If you enjoy reading about facing and overcoming challenges as well as being entertained, enlightened and inspired as you read, then my work is for you.
