Interviewed by - Charmaine Moved to Arkansas

1. You take alot of pride in your Irish heritage. Have you ever been to Ireland? If so, how was the experience?

I have been to Ireland twice.  The farm where my dad grew up is run by his nepheew, the 11th generation to run that farm (milk and cattle).  Their house is older than this country.  The country is very small, you could fit all of Ireland inside Ohio, but no pictures or descriptions can ever do justice to the beauty and the spirituality of the country.

2. You are a published author. An accomplishment that many only dream of. How old were you when you first dicovered a love of writing?

I was writing poetry and that in High school.  I wrote 2 memorials to people who had passed away and they got a lot of notice, it expanded from there.

3. What do you first notice in someone who may potentially be a romantic interest?

smile drops me every time, an enthusiasm for life is very important - that vitality carries over to everything; love, humor, living, sex, everything.

4. What is one thing that you learned from your previous marriage that you think would be helpful in a future marriage and/or long-term relationship?

I allowed the break in our trust to impact everything.  I would be more open and qestion a lot more than I did.  It HAS to be a two way street - all the efforts of only one will not work, no matter how hard you try.

5. What are three things that you hope to do before you die?

Have a best seller
have a spouse and family
Make the world a better place for my having been here
