Fun Facts
One of my greatest passions that I love to visit often is creative writing. You can bet that if you've known me for some time, I would have asked you to read one of my stories or poems. Writing is such a great escape from the pressures and stress of everyday life and I don't know what I would do to satisfy the creative urge otherwise.
