Through it all - through the natural progression of my career from reporter to editor - I wrote stories in my head. One day I could be interviewing the latest country music star, the next day I was writing about local motorcycle gangs or interviewing an award-winning scientist. I knew the first day that this was where I belonged.Īfter I graduated from college in journalism, I took a job at the local daily newspaper and I reveled in the challenge and the diversity of it. Life took a different turn for me, though, when my mother made me take a journalism elective in high school (thanks, Mom!).
I wanted to be an actress or a teacher or a lawyer. To the disgust of my friends, I even enjoyed creative writing assignments that made them all groan. I always loved to read and throughout my childhood I could usually be found with a book in my hands. I'm not one of those people who knew from birth she was destined to become a writer.
