Biographie de l'auteur

Virginia Powell Sharp always had the urge to write. Even as a teenager she penned an imaginary journal recalling young love. Her fellow classmates swooned over the journal. Deaths of former cheerleaders led her to write eulogies for them. If it was not poetry or short stories, it was something else. Writing was a creative outlet for her. Now as a senior citizen she writes an inspirational love story based upon her own life. She retired after teaching 25 years. Her entrance into teaching was never planned, but someone led her into this field. She grew up in war time in Venezuela and returned to the States as a second grader. Her parents moved often. Texas felt like home but a final move was to Louisiana where she graduated from high school and college. She began teaching English in the junior high and retired as a mathematics instructor and consultant from the University of Louisiana at Monroe. She taught in American schools in Singapore, Korea, and Egypt. She and her former husband raised their three girls overseas and returned to Monroe, La, their home base. After returning to Monroe two years passed quickly. At the end of that time Caryn wanted to know where the family was moving to next. Mom said "Monroe"
