ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I have been writing for 25 years and have won numerous writing awards. I have been published in various magazines and had my own column in a New York newspaper. I recently completed my first novel which I hope to publish and I am working on a collection of essays about 9/11. I have a crazy German Shepherd who is my best buddy in the whole world. I love to read and I am a huge NASCAR fan.
