Married almost 36 years. Three grown children, five grandchildren all under six years,(busy blessings). Born again by the grace of God almost 35 years ago.
I wrote privately when I was young as a way to filter my very broken upbringing. I threw almost everything a way before anyone read it so I would not be scorned and mocked. We were not allowed to express emotion or fear.
I did win one state poetry contest in high school. I thought I would be a journalist but met a young Christian rancher from Wyoming and married instead. Praise God!
I taught Sunday School, Awana,Youth group, VBS and have given my testimony for a few groups. I wrote poetry to God, personal family stuff and four Christmas plays for our church. Never tried to publish anything.
Three years ago a woman we advertised with began to implore me to write for their agriculture paper.
Finally, with my husbands prodding I did so this last March (2016).
If God wants me to write for His glory, then I need to learn to do it right. That is why I am here. More likely I need to quit wasting my time and get back to my real work.
