"Forget all rules.  Forget about being published. Write for yourself and celebrate writing."   Melinda Haynes 

       I’m a writer.  And looking in the mind of a writer can be a scary place depending on what he or she has to say.  I started writing as a hobby, putting to paper the characters I saw in my mind.  A place where I could take my vivid imagination all the while presenting a calm face the people around me could be comfortable with. 

         Working twelve to fourteen hours shifts, sometimes every day for three weeks at a clip, when an inspiration strikes, I would scribble notes on any piece of paper I could find.  Riding the bus I would get an idea, and afraid I might later miss the true meaning, I scribbled notes on the inside of gum wrappers or on bus schedules.

         What you may find in my writing of over a dozen novels, is they cover a variety of subjects.  It’s said great writers steal ideas from other writers.  My inspirations came from every day people.  The words I’ve put to paper are meant to reach a variety of intellects and place them in situations they can relate and with sensitive characters that energize their emotions.  

         My wish is when reading my novels, they take you to a place where the weight of life is lifted for a time, and once again that naughty you hiding inside… can breathe.
