PLAYS

I am the mother of 2 children. My son is 14 years old and my daughter is 10 years old. I was a single mother for 11 years before meeting and marrying my husband. My husband and I met on Yahoo Personals. We dated only a few months and knew we were ready to spend the rest of our lives together. We were married with 6 months. I have worked in the Early Childhood Education field for 16 years. I have professionally worked with children from birth to 12 years old. Over the years, I have worked with children and families from all races and economic backgrounds. I have spent the last 4 years as the Director of a large preschool. Even when not at work, I am still working with children. At my church, I am the youth choir director. Also, I serve as the Director of Christian Education. This gives me the great pleasure of coordinating VBS. Writing has been a secret part of my life since I was a child. It provided healing during difficult times. It allowed me to heal while still in a wounded state. I have written a few plays that have been performed by local church youth groups. I have decided to pursue writing in a more public forum.
