NewEarth Series - Grabon

All About Me

our tragedies and trials, but somehow, we usually manage to band together and face them with as much strength as possible.

My husband and I have been together for… let’s say we met in 1983. He is not only my companion and friend, but also the guardian of my imagination. I imagine I am not easy to live with on a regular basis, especially because I am not always present where my feet are, but I also tend to babble and talk to my characters as I am plotting. Yes, he deserves a medal.

For thirty years, I was the teacher in a classroom. It was an experience I would never give up and I hope I made a difference for those students, but underneath the apple crusted desk, I was always a writer, an observer and a student of human behavior and responses. My imagination tends to fly in a million directions and it takes a cage to keep it focused.

Everyday I learn something new, something interesting and unfortunately, something should have realized before. Today I figured out how to include an image with a post. Of course the reader has to hit the post to see it in full size, but I bet you guys catch on to that faster than I did. Of course it was something Bryon said, we were talking about some other goofy mistake I…
