My passion for writing began there nearly 25 years ago when my 12th grade English teacher, Mr. Robert Craig, took notice of my creative writing ability, and submitted a poem that I had written entitled A Positive State of Mind to the National Poetry Press, Agoura, CA in 1981. That was my first and only publication. After graduating from New Castle Senior High School, I moved to Pittsburgh, PA (my home for the past 21 years) and dabbled with writing short stories from time to time. Instead of pursuing my dream of becoming a well-known author, I got married at a young age, had one child, and became sidetracked by all the duties and responsibilities expected of a mother and wife.
During most of my life I struggled with issues concerning my own sexual orientation, but never had the courage to face the demons publicly. By the time I was 27, I found myself a divorced, confused, single mother, still in denial regarding my desire for same-sex relationships. It wasn’t until 8 years later that God finally led me to a life of self-acceptance.
By 2004, I found myself aspiring to continue with my writing, and to create a story that others in my situation could relate to, so I began to pick up where I left off 25 years ago with my hopes of becoming a well-known author. God has helped me realize that it’s never too late to cash in on a dream.voir moins
