I am a mother of 2 great kids. I have been writing poetry and short stories for a couple of years now. I would mostly write them for myself or friends. I have recently been posting articles on Helium.com. I feel writing helps me with expressing my feelings and relieving stress. Many of my friends that have read what I have written are just amazed. They wonder how I knew what they were feeling. This a great feeling to know that I can make reach people with my writings.
