I live in Iowa, but have roots in Louisiana, Texas, Pennsylvania, and Illinois...only because parts of my life was lived in each of them.
I have a pretty strong faith that I will not shove down anyone's throat. It's not that I'm quiet about it by any means, however, I'm not going to force my beliefs on you.
I started writing back as a young child, but never really had stories (or starter stories) written until high school. I REALLY got a push in college, then dabbled off and on in my adult years. Last year, I made a bold step in putting a story out for public view ("Just A Kiss Goodnight") and the response was overwhelming (in a good way)!! People ask about my inspiration for ideas...I get inspired by a line in a song, a movie, TV show, a poem, things around me, etc. Inspiration comes from everywhere...you just have to teach yourself to be open to it.
I do not upload/update/post/etc as fast as YOU like me to. I have a life outside of Wattpad. I am married with two children and we are pretty busy. I am lucky if I have the chance to write even an HOUR during the day. Sometimes I am lucky and can fit writing in, but that is not always the case. I know that you want more...I hear you...but please for the love of rainbows and kittens, BE PATIENT!!
Comments.....PLEASE DO NOT ADVERTISE YOUR STORY IN MY STORIES!! If you want me to check it out, then please send me a PRIVATE message! I know that there are people who don't like a chapter or the story as a whole. I have been around enough in my life to know that you can't please everyone, but I ask that you BE RESPECTFUL in your comments and not just for me, but for the other readers.
I will not send you a soft copy of my stories only because I don't want anyone stealing them. They are copyrighted on this site and soon I will start adding the little copyright symbol to further emphasize that.
