I grew up with my identical twin sister, two brothers and a sister in Towson, MD and then Stamford CT. where I attended high school and college. I am a semi-retired licensed real estate broker, and a licensed auctioneer. I have three sons, three stepdaughters, one stepson, and 18 grandchildren. I have always loved writing. I have written poetry since I was very young. In recent years I have written 3 children's books. One is called "The Christmas Giraffe" and is in print. There are two others scheduled to be published this summer. My website is nanniesink.com. It is dedicated to the sharing of all forms of art, writing, poetry, painting, drawing, carving.... any medium that is inspiring, beautiful, creative, and enjoyable to everyone.
