Every letter, word, page gets me closer to my dream.
As far as I can remember, I’ve loved writing, but life happened and bills had to be paid, so I did all the other jobs first.
If I imagine the perfect world, I would have a life that supports being able to write all day, attend seminars with other writers, read every book I can get my hands on, explore settings for my stories. I would only take breaks for boxing.
I write short stories to hone my skills and work my writing muscles. The YOU ChooseDay feature was created to challenge me – throwing together random elements, matching them with a genre, and then writing a unique story.
Sharing my experiences and what I stand for in the blog keeps me in grounded, and actively participating in this life I've created.

you choose & i write
STEP 1 — Story prompts are shared on my Instagram Stories on a selected ChooseDay (aka TuesDay) of the month. YOU Choose a character, a setting, an object and a situation.
STEP 2 — Voting is open for as long as the Story is live, then results announced on Instagram.
STEP 3 — Then the real fun begins where I write the story and publish it as soon as I can.
