A Few Words
About Me
I am a professional writer with 10 years of experience in writing for magazines, blogs, and fictional literature collections.
I was born in Dallas, TX, but my professional career started in Boston, MA, as I chose that city for my education. I started my career as a journalist in a local Boston newspaper in 1995. Since that time I’ve been practising at writing because at that time I had a dream of becoming a professional writer, so that I could write interesting and captivating stories about society that surrounds me.
After 8 years of self-development as a specialist in writing articles for magazines and books for publishing houses, I can say that my dream has come true.
