How I did it: I had a friend doing mission work in Seoul. When she had gotten settled in with her job and roomates she invited me to visit. My husband didn't want me to go, but I wasn't going to let him stop me. I have always wanted to travel. At times I let him almost talk me out of it. North Korea was incredibly scary at the time and South Korea just didn't seem far enough away, but I went and it was wonderful. Read how I did it…
I’m an artist with the ability to connect with munchkins of all ages. Whether I like it or not, they like me. They come to me. Want to talk to me. Watch me. Do what I do.
Sometimes I want to run away and hide, but I think it’s a blessing. For some reason I can remember all too well what I felt like as a child. So, I can relate pretty well with them.
I am inspired daily to write stories, based on kids I know. I have the plot and even what the characters would look like in my head. The adventures they would have and the moral of the story. Yet it never makes it onto paper.
Maybe it’s because I’m too busy painting or drawing other things, or sculpting or knitting. I have to create stuff. I have to.
I just wish I could make time to write and illustrate one children’s book.
