I'm from a small town in southern U.S., married with some awesome kiddos, finished college when my oldest two were babies, always been a dog person but have a huge heart for animals in general, grew up trailing the woods and riding four wheelers, proud to say my daughter has brought home a buck her first two seasons in a row. I began writing when I was three. I loved to make up stories that fit my interest better than reality. I took up poetry just a few years back, and I've become addicted to it. I scratch novels for fun over time, but I just love making this world more of what I want it to be. That's the power of writing.
