| Introduction | I have wanted to be a writer since I was first asked what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wore my first “book” in first grade which my very cool teacher “bound” in a red, velvet cover. It’s so special to me. I wrote pages every day of a story all throughout my primary and secondary schooling. I had a huge and very very awesome readership which couldn’t wait for new chapters to be completed! Cool huh? I am a proud mom of a son who struggles with autism every day and wins! Because of my traumatic brain injury, right now I’m not working at all and I’m not sure when I’ll be able to go back either. No SSDI for me either - I had a period of time when I couldn’t work which disqualified me. Sonofabitch. But that’s my luck. I am a survivor of child abuse, PTSD and I’m not really sure if I’m the only one inside my head. My parents DEFINITELY needed some sort of certification and ongoing assistance on how to be decent parents. To be honest, I don’t think they could even try. Grownups just need to keep their hands to themselves. Children are CHILDREN, assholes! Thanks a lot because more, therapy is my middle name. |
| Interests | Reading, writing, politics, civil war and WWII. learning always. Proud, Israeli-American, Zionist Jew. Knitting, yarn addiction. |
| Favorite Movies | While You Were Sleeping, all Descendants (don’t judge me!), Golda, Raid on Entenbbe, pretty much anything with Liam Neeson and a gun. He’s badass. |
| Favorite Music | Histerically, retro hard rock. I do really well in trivia about that. Cracks me up. Nothing 60s out pretty much the 70s (except, of course, my encyclopaedic knowledge of hard rock.) But love 40s. And 50s. And Elvis (again, don’t judge me!). |
| Favorite Books | You name it. I read it. Particularly cozy mysteries. ALL of Joanne Fluke Hannah Swenson stuff. Most of the Tempest Brennan stuff, but they change narrators a lot and some I like and some I don’t, you get it. Leslie Meier Lucy Stone stuff - ALWAYS same moderator - LOL. I’m kind of OCD about that. |
Lionesses have no manes. How do they know when they've grown up?
What do YOU do to protect the children in your world and everywhere else? (No shaming, no judging, no throwing shade - thanks!)
