Thanks to an amazing English teacher, I developed a love for the written word early in life. Afterward, I began to use stories to clear my mind or to express sorrow or joy, and before long, I found that my characters came alive and wrote stories for me, bringing me along for the ride.

Money For Chicken (a funny name for a book of poetry) was born over a lifetime of taking cares, joys and struggles inward and unraveling them from the inside out. The results became a diamond of a book for the poetry-readers pleasure, born of pain, subjected to the heat of a heart’s fire until the words became the gleaming diamond...entitled Money For Chicken.
