How I Got Started

It all started in 1998 when I received a writing test in the mail. I said, I'm no writer, and I threw the envelope in the garbage.

A few minutes later a still small voice (the Lord) told me to drag that out of the garbage and do the test and send it in.  Of course, I obeyed, but I was skeptical.

In a few weeks I received my answer: The Long Ridge Writers Group told me I should take their course. I was so surprised, but I took the course, and so my journey began.

A few years later I took another writing course (Apprentice) with the Christian Writers Guild. I learned a lot about writing for the Christian market.

I have been writing ever since. I want to write for the Christian market but I also enjoy writing talking animal stories for children. One of them is published. 

The supernatural has always intrigued me. I wrote a short story entitled "The House that Seems Alive." It was published too. 

I have two articles published. "Never Give Up" and "the Promise"

I haven't received any money for the above, but I loved writing them and I am working to improve so that some day I will be paid. It would be a wonderful feeling and I await that exciting day.
