I turned 64 years old on February 14. I've been single and childless all of my life but have "mothered" many pets. Having grown up as a Christian, I did not have a difficult life and lived with my parents until they died. Now, I am working on my childhood passion and hope to make a reputation for myself as a children's book author. |
I mostly write short stories and poems for children, but also write religious inspirational pieces. |
My poems rhyme most of the time unless I do an acrostic. |
I like all artistic forms and have dabbled in many, but writing is the one that will not let me go. |

Religion and Historical Fiction would be my favorites now. Growing up I was big on horses and sci-fi. |
I don't have favorite books. I am often reading as many as three simultaneously, because my interest shifts. |
I was heavily into Sci-fi and liked H. G. Wells a lot. Edgar Allan Poe, and Mark Twain come to mind but I pay more attention to the stories than the authors. I have no favorite contemporary author. |
Dr. Seuss is my idol for children's poetry. I do not choose favorite poets so much as choosing the poems I like best. The fact that many will be by the same authors is simply due to their style appealing to me. |
I don't have any. |
Oldies and old show tunes, not the current music from today's musicals. |
I don't have any currently. I like all of the big epic Biblical films and musicals, i.e. King of Kings, My Fair Lady and I liked Gone With the Wind, (Didn't everybody?). |
