About this title

About the Author

Born 1946, in Moultrie, GA., but raised in South Florida, to parents of German (mother), Irish and American Indian (father), descent. Fifth of six children, I left home at age sixteen to conquer the world. I've held many job positions, from waitress to business office supervisor, but retired from the Bradford County Sheriff's office, Starke, Fl., in 2003. My husband, Donald, and I met in 1978, when he was my platoon sgt. In the army national guard, however, we did not marry until almost twenty-four years later, (I wasn't through conquering the world!). We have six children between us, but none together, and fourteen grandchildren, all of whom we adore. Writing, whether it be poetry, song lyrics or short stories, has always been a passion of mine. It was also my mother's passion so I suppose I inherited it from her, however, God gave me whatever, if any, talent I have. That talent lay dormant for nearly thirty years, (while I was conquering the world), and has only resurfaced in the past two years. I was always an avid reader until my eyesight started deteriorating. My husband and I live in a small, modest home at Kingsley Lake, just outside of Starke, Fl. We enjoy, camping, fishing, yard work, family and numerous friends.
