About This Author
I am a 40 year old married mother of two teenage boys. I live for writing, especially romance. Love the happily ever after scenerio. The best thing about writing for me is the ability to lose yourself in your work, and feel as if you've accomplished something great. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters.

Poisoned Purple Pen
She sat down at her old wooden desk, pen at the ready. Her thoughts raced. What shall I write today? Tilting her head to the side, a small smile tugged at the corner of her mouth before enveloping her delicate face. The purple ink began to fill the once blank sheet, each stroke a labor of pure joy as the words flowed from her mind, her heart, her very soul.
My Dreams...
to write of romance and endless love
to love without boundaries
to learn from past mistakes
to laugh with all my heart
to be the woman I am meant to be
TODAY...
I will reach for the stars
Will not give up
Will give all that I have
Dare to dream the impossible dream
For anything in this life is possible
<---I am blown away by this

The Sunday News! Sorry for the morose prompt today...
It was announced on Saturday that the world lost music legend Chuck Berry at age 90. Ponder for a second this line in the article I linked- a quote attributed to author Chuck Klosterman: "Which rock star will historians of the future remember?"...now, substitute "rock star" with any given position or occupation of prominence (or, if it suits you, don't) and answer the question. Which <person of greatness> will historians of the future remember most easily?
I think historians of the future will remember Thomas Edison easily. We all know he invented the light bulb. But did you know that he invented the motion picture camera and the phonograph? Where would we be today without movies, television, and music? I could probably get by without movies and tv, but no way could I survive without music.
I can remember my very first record player, and laying on the floor in front of that box all crazy over Donny Osmond. I was like 6, so don't judge me!
I appreciate these awesome inventions. They have really come a long way since their humble beginnings. And even now thinking about lightbulbs, I am so damn glad they have to progressed to daylight bulbs. No more yellow glow. Nope, you can have LED lights that make it look like you are actually outside in daylight. My house is filled with them. All but one room. Zak's! *eyeroll* He refused to convert. Maybe it's because I'm getting older and I like things nice and bright so I can see. I don't know. But when I'm in a room with yellow light, I cringe.
