I have always loved to write. I started out writing poetry when I was in high school. I was Literary Editor of my high school newspaper. This was nerdy to most of my classmates, but to me it was the highlight of my high school years. I was published in some poetry anthologies. That was a great honor to me, but I don't remember ever being praised for it. Which is the way it should be, writing should be for yourself.
I didn't go to college, for many reasons. But, the best thing in my life happened and Larry and I married and went to Auburn to work his way thru school, and then into the Air Force. I would write anything, except true fiction. I was lucky enough to be published in Selma, AL., Goldsboro, N.C., Auburn, Al., Wurtsmith A.F.B., MI., Castle A.F.B., CA., and Langley A.F.B., VA.
Then, Larry retired from the A.F. and we came to Columbus to open our our business. This took most of my time for many years. No writing of any kind. Now, we are retired and I certainly have the time to write. I am trying to keep up with the times. Thus, this blog :) .
I will write about what I know, how I became who I am. It doesn't matter if anyone reads it or not. It is for myself, which,again, is what writing is about. If anyone reads and wants to comment, I would love that. This is new to me, so don't know how fancy it will be, but that's ok, too. I hope if you do read my blog, you will enjoy it and make some comments. I'm Still Standing.
