Why I Write for You
I am drawn to storytelling. I like to paint pictures with my written words. I like to describe the images, the feelings of people, the sounds, the sight of beauty, in every letter, word and sentence.
I like to capture fleeting moments and put them in paragraphs to be stored in one’s memory for always.
I like to give my readers thoughts to think about, hopefully a lesson learned that can help them get through the day. Therefore, I write. I like to help you make this day count.
