Bio
I enjoy writing for fun. I like to write for several genres including fantasy, poetry, and dystopian, but I am open to trying other genres too. It has been a source of stress relief from my busy life.

The Vanished Flame
Spot of goose feather, the snout of a pig, the skin of a turnip, the bill of a duck, a hint of heather, warts of toads, silky worms, and sacred bark from a tree show the magic of the flame, wields its power as it may. All the witches chanted in the circle as they have always done.

The Sweetest of Memories
My family had an older lady in town that we cared for; she treated us as her family. Her name was Grandma T to us children. She had lost her only child and husband years before. She was among the most extraordinary people I have ever met. She was Scottish and born there. After her mother's death, she had come over with her father as a child. Since my blood grandparents were several states away, we generally celebrated with her on holidays. So, she had been taught the classic Scottish dishes and made plenty of them throughout the year. Nothing was more important than her recipe for shortbread straight out of Scotland.

Through the Wall
The cold, damp passageway was the fastest way through to the rooms without alerting the Royals of their presence. The castle was their pride, and how dare someone as lowly as they enter the room. The mere servant was not worth their time, and impossible tasks were always getting the work done. The hustle through the walls was the route, as the kitchen was just a short distance away.

The Middle Years
Freedom of young adulthood was nice to get out of the world of high school. It was a new world that was better than the next. It was finally a break from my two different high schools. I was not the smartest, but I gave it the best I could, and my local community college gave me a full-ride scholarship despite my ACT and SAT scores. By the way, they were the most terrible to ever see. I could be a better test taker despite my good grades. It was close with less gas money.

The Great Painting of the Sky
The sky was always beautiful to me. I have taken so many pictures of just the sky. It has always fascinated me to look at the sky at any time of day. The clouds float by, and the sun always shines brightly. The end of a long work day always brings the atmosphere for the last site before heading home. It is the one constant thing that keeps some sanity in my life. The soft colors vary from the time of day. It was a pretty painting that never ends right before my face. I can always enjoy it despite the time of year.

Sailing the Seas of Life
Life comes with many twists and turns over its rough seas. Whatever way I went, a challenge was always present. Life was never simple, but maybe I did not listen to my parents enough about that. I return to one of the books I read between middle and high school. It is a classic, but the adventure still lives on in my life.

Lord of the Rings
The most fantastic set of movies ever made. It takes the story from a hobbit with the most powerful ring of power set to destroy the evil thing through a journey of nine companions: the perilous journey and many setbacks with adventure and unlikely friendships to unlikely success to happen.
