Rantings of an Author

Where to go from here is a mystery. I know that the easiest answer would be to get a job as I have three kids (one still not of school-age), an overworked husband, and pets galore but the general fact is that I live in a rural town with a small city nearby and the jobs that I am able to do are scarce because I do have a disability (cerebral palsy) and I find that Wal-Mart type jobs are not something I physically can do because it requires a lot of standing and I get exhausted very easily.

I do have a master’s degree in Social Work but here in the Panhandle of Oklahoma many places will hire those who are less qualified because they are cheaper to hire. I have looked at trying to get a job at the University where my husband is employed and even they have said in the past that I am over-qualified for many of the jobs on campus and because it is so small there are no jobs available in any areas where I am qualified at all.

I have written several novels one of which I have self-published: Sunrises and Crossword Puzzles  that I hope sells through word of mouth and such. I will have other novels that I need to edit and get published as well. I do have a blog called: Marvelous One’s Mommy Mind Maze and have a writing profile at: Writing.com.

I really do love to write and educate others in regards to disabled people being like ‘normal’ people with a unique twist added on. I personally believe that everyone has a disability and thus I and others are no different. We were not made perfect, sorry to disappoint you who thought you were perfect.  

I am going to dedicate myself to become the author that I have always dreamed of become because I believe that I can achieve any goal I set for myself. I know this is not the popular way to do things but that is too bad. I have never done the popular thing just to make others happy.
