Married, had four children of which one didn’t survive. She died in a car accident at sixteen. After eighteen years of marriage to my first husband, was divorced. I remarried a year later. I divorced again. I never married again. In high school, I was very good in literature and spelling. Later in life I studied art. I came to Georgia in 1972, and have lived here, and always plan to live here. I worked on various jobs all my life, and raised my children and one grandchild, until I retired. Although I love to paint, I began to take a strong interest in writing after I retired. I wrote a book, once, when I was
young, but I didn’t have a typewriter at the time, and ask a friend of mine if she would type it into a manuscript for me. She moved away and I never received it back. My retirement has given me the time I needed to do some of the things I always wanted to do. And I guess writing was one of them.view less
