A Person From Another Time
It has come to my attention that ultimately I have been born in the wrong time period. I am a personal believer in reincarnation and I am a firm believer that my past life was in the turn of the century. I love the fashion, women had curves and grace.

An Update in Life
In 13 days, my baby's due date will be here. The real question is, is it going to be born before or after it? My mom thinks the baby will be born on the 17th and though I do want a fellow holiday baby (I'm a Valentine's baby), I just want to see my little… Continue reading An Update in Life

Luckily, I have finished the rough draft well before the deadline. As long as I have it submitted before the 18th, I'm good to… Continue reading Second Short Story

IDEA!
I have been so worried about the possibility of getting published that I haven't taken the time to remind myself that it's the craft that matters, not the publisher. And so, I plan to do just that. I am going to embrace my writing and just write. I don't want to think about the future… Continue reading IDEA!

The only time I ever joined… Continue reading An Online Writing Community
