I adore words and I love what happens when we grab them, sleep with them, holler and scream and laugh at them! I love what happens when we throw them in the air and watch them fall magically from our minds onto paper!

My Broken Valentine
Della slammed the door and locked the couple inside.

Home of Savannah Hayes – Tuesday Morning – Savannah was dreading Sam’s visit.

Every night at midnight, the purple clouds came out to dance with the blushing sky. It was my cue that it was safe to come out and breathe the cold damp evening air.
