| Introduction | Hello, I'm Sheila R.. I created Abracapocious as a means to channel pent-up energy while "keeping it real". If you're able to relate in some form or fashion, my goal has been accomplished. Before moving to the Northwest, I taught in the special education setting for nine years. I've always had a great interest in the written word but never exercised the ability until now. |
