Isaiah 40:31

I have been a member of fictionpress for almost six years (basically since I was 16 years old!), but haven't written much in recent years. I love history and researching/reading about it (my favorite eras are the Civil War, Wild West and WWII).

I am currently a professional wedding photographer based in the Piedmont/Triad of North Carolina. I also have a passion for horses and wildlife documentation and photography as well. I am hoping to continue to advance and improve as a writer...I publish my stories to fictionpress as I write them in order to obtain feedback and suggestions - I would love to hear yours!

My work currently in progress is called "Mistaken".
