Hello! I am a native of the Washington DC area and a history buff (among many other things). In my daily life, I'm a single mom and realtor, but history and writing are my passions, so thank you for letting me share them with you!
I plan on writing primarily in historical biographies. My style is to post 4-5 articles along a given topic (inventors, criminals, etc.) If you would like to have a certain series posted, please let me know! I'm always open to new ideas. Also please be sure to check out my archived articles!
