I love to write; it's that simple.
​
I worked with diverse demographics my whole life. It didn't matter what the industry was, the one commonality I found across the board was people--people and their stories. Some of us get an opportunity to connect stories, or create them. Some of us simply live them. All of us have them.

​

The story arch of our lives is the big picture and from it, we can ascertain as to which road leads to contentedness. Connecting through writing is something I take great joy in and I believe it is my path. It is my hope that my path will cross yours, and that chapters unfold.

“Imagination, which is a quality writers must have, does not mean the ability to weave pretty stories out of nothing. In the right sense, imagination is a response to what is going on — a sensitiveness to which outside things appeal. It is a composition of sympathy and observation.”

- Willa Cather, Lincoln Daily Star, 1915
