Author's favorite blurry picture of herself. She will use this one, until she is dead!

I was born and raised in the Midwest. The Quad Cities. I have my choice of three bridges in downtown (One is now brand spanking new!) that I can cross over the old Mississippi river, to get to Illinois. It’s crazy city life, but there’s plenty of parks and nice walkways, along the riverfronts.
