I love the written word and believe that: "new emotions are born from 'the process.' When men go through crisis and tragedy, unfamiliar feelings are summoned and our character is redefined. When we meet these challenges head on and accept the changes we must go through, we discover one more characteristic, integrity."

My major influences are my parents who no longer grace the physical world. I suppose this is where I tell you my unique qualities. Unfortunately, words can only describe very little of the human mystique. This is the conundrum; words are all writers have to explain all there is. It is not enough but I enjoy the challenge of trying to put all I see and feel into my writing. If this sounds weird, I must be doing something right. My ultimate goal is to be happy and at peace in this moment, all I have is right now and I choose to be happy.
