The Muse is a woman with a pen. A writer of note who keeps a secret quill. Her first poetic work to be released was a childrens' story ~ The Little Sprout. A paradox of a woman, her hands are calloused and reverent. They have painted canvases, molded clay, charted geo-spatial trajectories, engineered software, washed puppies, and scrubbed floors. They have wiped away tears and folded in prayer. They have fired missiles and cradled babies.
The Muse proudly claims a kaleidoscopic ancestry of Irish, English, Scottish, German and American Indian. Since her youth, she has been fluent in several languages. An avid bibliophile and logophile, The Muse continues her passion by immersing herself in the written word of various genres. She adores word games especially Scrabble.
A self proclaimed lover of life, The Muse, celebrates by inspiring those around her. She is married to her first love, has two adult sons, and is the very proud nanny of several grand-children. The Muse resides with her family on an American Heritage Farm, which has been in their family for over 200 years. Her prose flows from the inspirational South Branch Valley of WV.
"To garner the truth about others is a blessing~To learn the truth about ourselves, is a necessity." (The Muse)
