Julie Moore Bantin
I was born in a small town in West Virginia. At a young age, I had to learn to use my imagination in several different ways. One of which was a friend called Jenny. Many happy hours were filled with making up conversations and play times with her. After I outgrew Jenny, I began writing in a diary. I haven't stopped writing since.
I currently live in Asheville,NC, the perfect atmosphere in which to pursue my other passion which is craft work.(crocheting,knitting,etc.)I mostly crochet and have done several projects over the years. I like to donate hats in the winter and also donate baby blankets. I donate to different charity groups.
Eventually I hope to have a children's book published and I have already started my journey in novel writing with "After the Frost". The first three chapters have been published here, and as I continue to write, I will post the chapters as they are completed. It pleases me to write, and I hope it pleases you to read what I write. To all of you, I hope you have a wonderful day!
