About Me

With over 20 years experience in the paid writing field, I figured it is about time to write a book. My past writing experience has included fields involving business communications, healthy living/eating, medical, retail, public relations – to name a few.

I also have written a natural foods cookbook series, ezines, blogs, and reviews of various sorts.

My goal is to share my book writing experience as a motivational tool for both myself and my readers.

WordPress is an excellent way to maintain a blog since it’s so easy.

Well…

I am a Midwesterner, born and raised in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. From an early age, I’ve been a Detroit Red Wings hockey fan. I remember my mom listening to every game.

I watched many baseball games at Tiger Stadium, which is now just a empty shell. Sad..

My first priority in school (besides maintaining good grades) was band, since I started playing flute in 2nd grade. Many, many good memories. To this day, I entertain with my flute playing. I am working on a children’s project with my producer.

After graduating from high school, I traveled to Europe and visited my penpal. More wonderful memories:)

After returning from Europe, I was in a car accident which left me in a body cast. Not too many fond memories. This car accident left me with multiple injuries: closed head injury, fractured jaw, fractured neck, ribs, femur – and others.  My fractured femur resulted in my needing a total knee replacement – 30 years after the accident.

Educationally, my background includes an advanced degree in business administration. I’ve completed the 5th year educational requirements for the CPA Exam – which I have passed. I worked three jobs to put myself through college.
I’ve always loved writing. Enough about myself for now.
