Terri Rawls
I live just outside a small West Texas town where I have raised three children and am now getting even with them by spoiling their kids.
I hold an Associates Degree in Early Childhood Development and have extensive training working with at-risk youth. After taking an early retirement from Juvenile Probation I worked two years as a fitness coach for women.
I am a small business owner as well as a freelance writer and artist who enjoys writing about the things I've learned from living this crazy life. Companies I have published for include Demand Media, Live Strong, Virtual Vocations, Associated Content and eHow. I also ghostwrite and have written several books for children that I hope to see published in the very near future.
