Writing is a stress buster for me. I write for myself rather than anyone else. My heroines can be pig headed, rash and violent. I think they learn their traits from me. My stories are occasionally clichéd just like life is sometimes- banal and boring. My books are not just for women. Men should read them too. They can get a few pointers on what women want. I believe cuss words are a means of expression. Used appropriately they can be very effective. I also believe that at any time there are two conversations going on. The nonverbal one happens to be more interesting. I credit my Dad for my fondness of the written word. By giving me books instead of toys he gave me the best gift ever. Writing helps me stay lucid while reading blurs my cynicism---two traits vital for day to day life. Be warned; I’m one of the least interesting people you’ve met. So move on and forget about me. Just read my books.
