My character was built on all these experiences of life, from living in a tent to today. Very sad. Life was never dull. The loss of a stillborn son. Daughter to a brain tumor. Mental and physical abuse by husband. Family in car accident. Loss of both parents and a husband. I have survived all this to become my own person. Today, I struggle with pain from the hard life I have lived, and from illnes

I'm have worked hard and struggled most of my life. I write short stories, novels, poetry and dabble in scripts. They are all grown with families of their own. With the passing of my mother a couple of years ago I'm concentrating on my writing, blogging. Writing is the thing, which kept me sane through all the hassles. Plus the company of the many "Ghosts" who have taken up residence with me. Sometime they want me to write when I want to sleep. Writing also helps keep my mind off of all the pain in my muscles, and joints. When each story ends, I fell as though another child has left home.
