As you might be able to tell from my username, I am an avid lover of all animals. My "collection" consists of 3 dogs (2 Rat Terriers and 1 Chihuahua), 2 barn cats, and 6 chickens. I live in a rural area that is nestled fairly close to town. One thing I love about living where I do is that the stars are very visible  from my back door. It's easy to get lost in thoughts while taking it all in. Besides my pets, I also love to read and write. Writing is something I have always done. I started out with a daily journal and in time, it has turned into creative writing, usually inspired by my active dreaming (which is another "hobby" of mine). I am perceived as a mostly positive, open-minded person. I look forward to reading some good reads and also meeting fellow writers. Feel free to contact me at any time!
