About

I’m a born and raised Midwest girl who has never left. Well, I have left, of course, for vacations, business trips, etc. but I have always lived in the Midwest. I am a very lucky mother of three beautiful children and wife to a very supportive husband that enables me to stay home and raise them. Him included.

Now as all my children are in school full-time, my attention is focused on trying to raise a successful writing career.

I started blogging to serve more than one purpose, three actually. Within the last few years, I have decided to write a novel. A character strolled into my mind as I was perusing the library shelves one day with my kids and she never left. I have loved every minute of it because it is something just for me; it just feels right. I have awakened a part of myself that I think I have been looking for for a long time. This gives me a place to just be me.

I write for ME.

This blog also serves as a place where I can tell others about the books I have read and loved.  If I am not writing, I’m usually reading. This platform gives me the ability to thank the authors that inspire me with their words and show them how much I appreciate their hard work.

Others write FOR me.

This blog also lets me vent my frustrations and thoughts on the writing process as well as connect with others and their struggles, successes, and inspirations. I hope to have others on here guest posting to talk about their writing processes and lives, like a bunch of friends sitting around with a nice bottle of wine, or two.

That’s the WRITE for me.

I hope you enjoy my site as well as my blog. My writing journey will be long and winding but that is okay because it is…well, “write” for me.

    Check out Seth Godin’s blog –> http://sethgodin.typepad.com/
    Though his main focus is on marketing, he talks a lot about ‘lizard-brain’ fears preventing us from doing great things. It’s no big deal to fail. Each of us fails to do something almost every day. It IS a big deal to let fear of failure prevent us from doing great things.

    Seth is an author of about a dozen books on marketing,
