“What I Am About”

The life of a newlywed agrees with me as I am writing more than ever.  My husband, Daniel, and I reside in Greenville, South Carolina, where I recently discovered Nicholas Sparks lived while writing his first success: The Notebook.  I can only hope that this place will do for me what it did for him.

Mostly, I prefer to write poetry (thank you, Mary Brown) and non-fiction.  Poetry comes easily to me, so I try to write my non-fiction to give myself practice.  I heard that it takes at least 100,000 words before your style is established and comfortable.  While I wait for the words to pile up, I’m entering contests and writing for a local IN magazine called “glo.”

Good luck to all of my fellow writers!
