About Me

My friends call me "Dee". I hate "Dottie". It's a perfectly good nick name but when I was in elementary school a boy called me "Poka Dottie". I hated that name and I hated him. Many years later we met again and I reminded him of how he tormented me. He confessed he had a crush on me and couldn't think of any other way to get my attention. I guess boys will be boys but damage done, Lester.

I'm a married sometime freelance writer. I have been a mom and a restaurant server and a warehouse worker. I like to think of myself as a world traveler who needs at least one more trip. Most of my travel memories are of airports and cars and hot summer days.

I started this blog several years ago with the intention of writing every day. Life intervened but I come back and look at it several times a year. When I have time to write I prefer to be paid for the effort. I hope you understand.
