Tamara Jern
I'm a geeky mom of one spirited child and wife to a gamer husband. Writing has been something that I've been doing on and off for around half my life and its always something that's cathartic, emotional, and always leads in directions that I never expected it to go. My other form of expression that I love is cross stitching. Creating patterns to share is but one way I can give back to others who've helped me create the pieces that I have. As I journey through life, I hope that I can help you as much as everyone has helped me.
