Writer and Storyteller

For the longest time, I desired to be a writer.    Now that my kids are grown, married, and have their own kids, I’m able to spend time writing.   At work I always tried to take on writing assignments. I enjoy handwritten letters, sending letters and cards to families and friends around the holidays.  I have several friends whom I correspond to regularly.  Most recently, I’m working on writing children’s books. I have always been a storyteller. When I was six year’s old, my mother dropped us off at DePaul Settlement House Day Care.  The Day Care would walk us to St. Vincent DePaul Catholic School about a few blocks away.  Everyday I would make up a story for my friend Patty De Sotto.  She would always find me as we were walking to school and ask me for a story.  One day she told me that I always say “and then” a lot in my stories.  She was my very first fan and critic. Growing up, I told stories to my brother, sister, and cousins.  As a mother, I told bedtime stories to my children.  Many of these stories I shared about our family history.  Now I have four grandchildren, and I’m sharing stories with them too.
