About me

What six words would I tell my teen self if I could go back in time?
Sometimes you have to stand alone.

If you were to throw up your hands in exasperation and yell "it's the story of my life," what would you be talking about?
Somewhere in the midst of that chaos and disruption, I will find joy, I will find peace, I will find the possible in impossible.

Besides SMITH, I read stories at:
I am new to online magazines, and what I find here will influence what I do next!

In bed I like to read:
Bedtime reading depends on the day, but generally speaking I reach for something that intrigues, inspires, or entertains.

My favorite story of all time is:
Forrest Gump

Right now, I'm reading:
Oxymoronica by Dr. Mardy Grothe

The song that encapsulates the soundtrack of my life is?
"Imagine", as sung by John Lennon, comes to mind first.

If I could have one person read my writing on SMITH it would be?
Michelle Obama -
