Retired from the State of Arkansas where I was a legal secretary working with the foster care system. Prior to that work, I had many jobs around the world as I traveled with my military husband. After retirement, I coauthored a manuscript about my mother's growing-up years during the 20s, 30s and 40s in north Louisiana as a sharecropper's daughter on cotton farms. It was published in 2008 by Tate Publishing Inc.

Mama went with me to festivals, libraries and civic organizations for five years as we signed and sold books and presented programs about that life during The Great Depression and World War II. We met many people who led a similar life and many young people who were fascinated by my mother's rendition of her memories of those years. Mama died in April 2014 and has left a legacy of that book along with many homemade quilts, afghans and songs of praise aboutherLord.
It has been a wonderful experience to see how young and old
and all ages in between have accepted the book as it was our intention to pen those stories so younger generations would know of that life from an eye-witness. You can find me on Facebook and more about the book on my book page there - Sharecropping in North Louisiana or any major book site on the internet.
