Hi!
Come right in and have a seat! Make yourself at home.
I started writing stories and poetry as a child.
I started a "novel" and did manage to complete over 100
handwritten pages. That was some endeavor for an 11-year old!
I've been writing off and on since the early 1980's
in various capacities. I have completed a multitude of
technical documents related to the software development industry, written articles for various local and online newsletters, written content for websites, and edited, written, and produced my own newsletters.
I find time to do some creative writing as well. I've had several short stories, poems, and articles published. My nonfiction book, THE MAGIC & THE MUNDANE: A GUIDE FOR THE WRITER'S JOURNEY is available from the Home page of this website.
I'm in the process of delveloping new writing classes and have been teaching writing online since 2001.
I have a BS degree in Early Childhood Education and a
Masters Degree in Special Education (specializing in
Learning Disabilities). After having worked in the public school system for several years, I realized I loved to work with the children, but I did not agree with much of what the public shool system is all about. I love to teach and to help people to learn new things but I didn't fit into the public school system.
I then moved into the computer field where I have over 20 years experience programming, analyzing, writing, training, and testing. Along with each task, I have not been shy about letting others know of my love for writing. Most managers have gladly given me more than my share of the project writing to perform. I loved this part of my work!
I work as an F2K mentor for Writers Village University (WVU) and teach writing workshops and classes at SavvyAuthors.com. Until last year, I was the Senior SF Editor for
ePress Online and Virtual Tales.
I've conducted workshops for the past several years for the Muse Online Writers Conference.
I work as a writing coach and am a member of the Association of Coaching & Consulting Professionals on the Web (ACCPOW). Check out my coaching website at Live Your Writing Dream.
Please feel free to email me with any questions.
Take care!
June
