I am a married mother of 3 and a native of the Texas Hill Country. I have enjoyed writing of all kinds since a very young age. I have published 2 recipes in Country Woman magazine, and in 2 of their cookbooks,"The Best of Country Cooking 2007" and "The Best of Country Cooking 2009", and "Taste of Home Annual Recipes 2010", as well as on the Taste of Home online site.I have one poem published by Poetry.com, in their anthology, "From Silver Fountains"; another by JMarkPress, in an anthology entitled,"Great Poets of the Twenty-first Century"; and several poems published online at Fellowship of Christian Poets online. I have one historical piece on a rural Texas school, published in "Gillespie County School Histories 1983"; 3 devotional booklets for a local church; and one illustrated, children's Christmas book, entitled "The Night That Was Christmas", published by PublishAmerica.com. Writing is my passion, second only to my children who cause me to engage in that unpaid mother's vocation of burning rubber on Texas roads, to keep up with them and all they do. Of course that is the one thing I would never trade, and will dearly miss one day all too soon. I am an outdoors person and prefer to be in the pasture in my spare time, in fact it is where I have done some of my best writing.
