Susan’s passion and talent for writing emerged early and has continued to bloom. Susan wrote a holiday tale, at the tender age of six, that impressed her Sunday school teacher, who incorporated it in the annual holiday pageant. Susan showed a strong proficiency for creative writing during high school and won several competitions, including first place in various local, regional, and national contests. Susan was awarded first place in the prestigious 1989 Catholic Daughters of America Poetry Contest . Susan went on to have her work published in various anthologies.
Susan has worked as a creative writing consultant and literacy tutor. Her most recent work has been with www.IndianTVToday.com where she is a guest contributor writing provocative and inspiring articles. She also is working as a lyricist with a contemporary blues/r&b composer.
Susan says “I completely respect and am fascinated with the beauty of words. I am intrigued by how changing one word, even one letter, completely alters the meaning and feeling of a piece. I adore creating stories and offering people the opportunity to step into another situation completely. I am continually amazed at the power of words to inspire, especially songs, poems, books, scripts, etc. that create ‘a-ha’ moments where you are empowered by learning something amazing about yourself.”
