I'm a 46 year old mother of two tweens, with a Malian husband and a few adventures in my past. Raised in Lincoln, Nebraska, I was eager to get out and see the world after high school. In the US I've lived in IA, NM, GA, PA, MO, OH, and now MD. I've also lived in Kenya, Mali and Ghana. I want to write because stories come to me and want to get out- it isn't really my thing, its' theirs. I am compelled to let them be free.
