Why I Write
When I write, I draw on my experiences as a woman with a painful past, a rapturous wife and mother, a world traveler, and a spiritualist. For me, writing is an art form. Like an artist, the work becomes more than I imagined it would be. When I set out to write a story with a particular idea or character in mind, words I cannot claim as my own flow from a magical and mysterious place through me and onto paper. The work takes on a life of its own; it is living art. The process fascinates me, satiates me, and makes my life more meaningful. Please read my stories!

WDC Survivor
Yesterday ended the second writing challenge for the WDC Survivor game. Our challenge was to write a short story in EXACTLY 1,254 words (verified by Microsoft Word) that is told from the perspective of an article of clothing. If you can wear it, it can be your POV.

I chose to tell a rather harrowing, real life story that happened to my husband in Africa, from the perspective of his wedding ring. We were newly-weds when this event took place, and I shudder to think how differently everything could have turned out. He could have been killed, our children would never have been born, I would have a totally different life right now. Crazy!

I'd love for you to read my little offering. When voting opens tomorrow, I hope you'll vote for me, to help keep me in the competition. Every round I don't get 'voted off,' I earn GPs for Rising Stars!!

Here's my short entry: "L'Alliance (The Wedding Ring) ~ Challenge #2

And here's all my Survivor work:
