The Other Side of Suicide
My love for writing began early in life when I started writing poetry and short stories at age 8. That love grew into something quite passionate over the years. Father s Day cards with poems enclosed turned into magazine articles, poetry anthologies, newspaper editorials, anything I could do to get my writing into the hands of other people. In 2006 I was approached by Publish America to have my first book published, Death is the Daybreak, which I gratefully accepted. Soon after that time, I began self-publishing my own books on the online website lulu.com. I am enjoying a moderate amount of success with the self-published titles, promoting them on various websites that advertise on the google search engine free of charge. My self-published books range in subject material from historical photographs to organic gardening, natural healing, puzzle solving techniques, simple how-to books, and my personal favorite, life after death, which I am most passionate about. Throughout my life I have enjoyed hundreds of visits from members of my family who have died . Through these visits, I have come to feel that what we think of as death is really a new adventure. My family members on the other side of the veil have revealed to me what I have come to call secrets of the universe . Wonders. These experiences have changed my life.  At this time, I am 42 years old, I am recently widowed and home school my 2 children in our home in Lebanon, Missouri. Our open schedule allows us to travel locally and enjoy many freedoms that would not be available to us otherwise.
