why I write

 

 

I wrote my first short story in the fall of sixth grade.  I write today for the same reason I wrote then.  I'm compelled to give voice to characters, ideas and emotions that weave around and inside me.  I write because I need to bring to the page what I feel in my heart.  I write because words are joy.  I write because I can't not write.

As a Developmental Editor and Writing Coach I help both children

and adults realize their creative visions.
