Los Angeles, CA
I’m a newlywed, mother of three grown daughters, and a writer. Life started out a little rocky, but turned around sweet.
I’m always hearing that in order to figure out what brings you joy, think back to what you liked to do as a child. Well, I suppose I liked to make up stories, but then my high school English teacher took a red marker and made my papers resemble a bloody crime scene. Because I believe the woman is officially dead and can no longer attack my work with a vengeance, I’ve picked up my pen again.
My dream? To continue writing until all the notations on little scraps of paper I discover in my pockets and purse find a place on the page.
Please follow if the mood strikes you. It always makes me happy to see someone come back for another round. Comments are also greatly appreciated.

Hi Annie,
Woe is me. I came to say CONGRATULATIONS for the Pixelhouse Award! I received an RSS Feed post from 2/8 that was a thanks for support. Much to my horror, I just saw it but strangely enough the link isn’t working now. So, here I am dropping you a personal note to say “You Rock!” Maybe you won’t have to “fake it until you make it” much longer
.
Peace,
L.

Oh my gosh I completely forgot that the world is ending this year. I have a feeling you’ll make it before then so no worries

I can relate to how you felt with your English teacher as I had the same experience more then once with my own high school teacher. I’m so glad those days are gone.
Your blog looks and reads really clean and friendly and so much fun to read!
