About the Author I was born and raised in a small village in Ohio, with ten brothers and sisters. I was exposed at an early age to reading; my mother read every chance she got. With each book, my imagination grew, and from that I started writing stories.I am a mother and grandmother, and I tried to impress how much enjoyment you can get from reading. I do quite a bit of volunteer work in the community and church. My hobbies are painting Ukrainian and ostrich eggs, and I also enjoy ceramics. I enjoy traveling, and I belong to a square dance club.
