About Me

Somewhere, Florida
Mother. Wife. Daughter. Sister. Teacher. Professor. The list goes on and on. As usual, I have my hand in way too many fires (I mean that almost literally). I work three jobs (four, if my most important job of "Mommy" counts), have three kids (four if my husband counts) go to grad school, and am trying to make a go of this whole writing thing. So, read it and share it. I will write a blog when I can; just add it to the list. I'll sleep when I'm dead.

My most popular article.....

This one is one of my best. Keep watching to read more about my son's battle with ADHD-PI. I am sure there will be lots more as this kid enters his tweens....

Where it started.....

I have wanted to be a professional writer since I was a little kid. I even "wrote" a book when I was about five...my mom wrote down what I said. My very first book went like this:

There was a little girl.
She went walking in the woods.
A monster ate her face.
It was a bad day.

Yeah, did I mention I was FIVE?
But, you know, there is something there. I had a main character--the little girl. I had a plot--walking in the woods, meeting a monster. I had a setting--the woods. I had a conflict--a monster ate her face. I even had an ending, sort of, in the bad day.

So, who knows. Was greatness started that day? Probably not. But now that I am actually getting paid (a little bit, but I will take it)to write, I think I will take this ride until they kick me off.

So, check out my stuff here. No promises, but if you like it, please share it. Early and Often.
What's next? A book. I doubt it...I'm a little busy. Maybe this summer.
Cheers,
Dori
