CK Conner
CK's always been an overcomer, and would love to use writing to encourage anyone that they can make it. Especially now, when the world is in total dissaray.
She credits her writing talent to her English/Business teacher, Miss Glois Schrader, who has since passed on, who first saw the good in her and her talent in writing, assigning her as editorial editor of the high school paper her junior and senior year. She's also been a ghost writer for the local newspaper.
Three of her greatest accomplishments have been co-owning 8 rental houses plus an automatic transmission repair business; worked 3 different times for the Federal Government (Air Force medic, GSA & USPS) but her favorite was working 5 1/2 years managing all aspects of 113 unit HUD Section 8 apartment complex for seniors, handicapped and disabled people. Now retired, she has returned to her private love of writing. She'd love to hear from you and if you are a contributor as well, read your articles as well.
Now retired, having never lost her love for writing. she's so thrilled to have an outlet and hope that her words inspire readers all over the world that in a time of great distress that there is hope!
She has 1 child, and no one could be prouder. Married to her best friend in all the world, and doing all they can to provide for others annonymously.
