I started it as just practice in writing.

I grew up wanting to be a writer.. I had things published (editorials) in the Marietta Daily Journal when I was in high school....

My parents split and I had to move my senior year with a dad that is as backwoods and backwards as they get-- College isn't for girls... My plans for school here in GA were smashed-- buit I went anyway up in PA.

He kicked me out of the house half way through my first semester-- then I was so mad at my parents for destroying my plans- I became self destructive.... not good...

I found myself a single mother of 3, (husband is a dead beat) Then I worked myself through school- (Student of the Year BTW!) by scrubbing toilets and mowing lawns for anyone who would let me. Right before I finished school- a friend asked me to be his campaign manager. In school- My PASSION for writing was reawoken..

So, it had been almost 20 years since I had written. Politics and writing were my passions now- so I started just writing. At first it was just to practice. Just to discipline myself to write somehting everyday... then I got involved with Terri- and I went from politics to Activist.....

All my political ties have helped- the experience, etc..

I love blogging because I love helping people-- I LOVE PEOPLE! I love writing. I love research. I love investigating. I love trying to right injustices.

It is just the way God created me-- these are my passions- and I am finally using them for something.....

I am blessed.
