The world is not in a good place now and I use writing as way to help others remain hopeful. I would like to think that something that I pen will also be of help and even make someone happy besides me. My children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren are my favorite people. I am thinking of writing a children's book about my grandson, Ahmir and his sister Ahlivia. I am an introverted extrovert, an optimistic cynic, and a citizen politician. I enjoy satirical irony. Many know of me, few know me. My writing reveals who I really am when people pay attention.
