Portrait of Elyse

I fell in love with words when I was a little girl, and dreamed of being an author. As I grew older I realized I needed experience in order to make my writing interesting. I put the idea of writing aside for awhile and experienced the joys of living. I spent 4 years in the United States Air Force, 2 years as a flight attendant, and countless others jobs from being a maid to spending 24 years in the telecommunication industry. Life experience I have gained and its been great traveling the world interacting with people in many walks of life. At 61 I am ready to pursue the dream I have carried with me for most of my life. The saying that it is not the destination, but the journey that counts, is a true statement, and in my case the journey is not over yet, but so far has been fantastic. The rest of my life I hope to enjoy as an author.
