Introduction I took a personality test once that showed that only 1% of the general population analyzes people, and the world as much as I do. So that can only lead to one title for my blog- "Melinda Mania". Now don't get me wrong, I am not truly manic, I just happen to find people absolutely fascinating and so I choose to analyze the world by choice, consciously and subconsciously. Finding the reason "why" we do and think the way we do seems to be my brains favorite activity- when I'm not keeping it busy with the many tasks and responsibilities of each day. And, like most women I know, there is plenty to keep me busy! One of these days I will finish writing my book, "Fisherman's Daughter"- the story of Marianna De'Angelis, a young woman caught in the middle of WWII and enlisted into a secret army of rebels against Mussolini on the island of Sicily, Italy. Writing calms my analytical mind and makes sense of the world!
Interests My husband, each of my five children, writing, reading, religion, music, animals, and most of all, relationships with my loved ones- family and friends.
