I started writing plays, stories, poems, and songs in fourth grade. I write daily as it is part of who I am. As a teen, I dreamed of becoming an author, journalist, film director, or all three! Any profession where I could set my creativity and imagination free.
Instead, I became a marketing strategist which allowed me to use some my creativity. The irony of my career is that everyone discouraged me from a profession that involved writing because of my dyslexia. Everyone said I should be in sales. Did I listen? No! I knew what my heart and soul wanted, and they wanted to write.
The poems in both poetry collections reflect my journey to find the courage to break from the past and negative relationships. Included with the poems are musings and flash fiction stories which showcase my energetic, imaginative mind.
My dyslexia books are straightforward, easy to read, with informative chapters and usable strategies.
