My “World of Drama” began for me as a young girl – spending a great deal of time alone. As quite a few children may have known such isolation, entertaining ones self was the way out of a lonely existence. Conjuring characters within my mind whom; I escaped with into adventures and worlds all from a well developed imagination.

This lasted for some years, until certain realities of life intruded to take up the space once held for my secret hidden world and people. As I grew older, the characters and events were forgotten...but not for long. You see, I found that these characters, or the life I had given to them, were alive and kicking, keeping up such a ruckus in my mind that I needed to let them out, and so entertained maybe writing. I had always done some type of story writing in school, but nothing serious. Poetry as well became a means for me to exorcise some hidden injury or event that left a lasting impression on me.

Then, I picked up my first novel to read. After it, another and another...by the 40th or 50th, I finally realized one startling truth...that I could write. That I should write...and then, I absolutely needed to write and so it began. Now, four novels later, I find myself taking advantage of this wonderful channel, the world wide web to give exposure to my characters, worlds, and fantasies. Enough said, I'd rather you spent this time reading my stories. All interracial to some capacity, if that's not to your liking...you're at the wrong website.
