| Bio: | A fourth generation Floridian, jl was born the third child of five and raised in West Palm Beach, Florida. Early love for drama and story-telling won her first prize in an elementary school writing contest. jl mo continued penning through her teenage years. By the end of high school she developed a life-long love for writing. She did not abandon her desire to write professionally while raising a family and working full time. She wrote several short stories, novelettes, and a few plays. It was her great escape which life left little time to pursue. Now in her fifties, her children grown, she had to leave her job to become a full time care giver for an elderly close relative. During that time, she gathered her old stories, started writing new ones, and earnestly began to pursue a writing career. |
