Honora James
Freelance Writer
Henry David Thoreau said, "The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them." Writing is my song, and I did not want to go to my grave with it being unsung. So, I turned in my resignation, pulled up anchor, and set my sails for open water. The waters have been rough at times, but I am comfortable with my decision.
I enjoy writing poetry, short stories, and current news stories. I also enjoy photography, sports, drawing, reading, walking, and cooking.
