Romance

I grew up in southern West Virginia and being the middle child, was surrounded by family, namely my two brothers. After high school, I married a man I met in college. He left school and joined the Navy, and we traveled to different bases along the East Coast. He gave me two great boys before we parted ways.
After the divorce, I attended beauty college, which helped me express my creativity differently than the poems and stories I’d written in the privacy of my bedroom. I began a twenty-year career in the beauty industry including teaching at my alma mater and then working for the state cosmetology licensing agency.
I always had a vivid imagination and dreamed of writing and publishing my own stories. Now, that I’ve hit fifty, my dream has been realized because of the love and support of my retired coal miner husband.
I live in rural Boone County, West Virginia, with my fabulous husband, one cat, one chunky dog, and six pet chickens. When I’m not writing, I’m helping my husband preserve the goodies from our garden, walking my dog, or gathering eggs.
