I'm Allison Egley. I graduated from Southeast Missouri State University in May 2006 with a degree in Elementary Education with an emphasis in Early Childhood Education. I am currently working for the state of Missouri with Vocational Rehabilitation. I don't know that I've always been a "writer" per-say, but I've always been "decent" in it, in that I got good grades in writing classes at school. I think what really made me realize I was a good writer was when one of my English professors complimented my writing in front of another professor. I discovered FaithWriters when I was trying to find a place to publish my article "Except God." I dove right into the challenges, and except for a break during my student teaching, have been addicted to FW and the writing challenge ever since. My name on the message boards is Allison.
