About Me: 

Writer. Blogger. Traveler. Mother. Wife. Book junkie. Potential world changer. Work in progress.

 

I blog at ChangeTheWorldWithWords.com about how writing can change the world, whether it's a world changing book that speaks out against prejudice, a parenting article that reaches out to an exhausted and overstressed mom with empathy and advice, or a message in a blog post about the environmental destruction we continue to inflict on our precious planet.

 

Connect with me on Twitter @writeandchange. New to it but looking forward to connecting with, following and supporting bloggers from the BlogHer community :)
