The Barber’s Daughter And the Magic Bottle of Darkness Book III
I grew up in Rome, New York, USA. I have been writing since I learned to write my name at the young age of 5 years old. I was born left handed and when I started school the policy at that time was everyone had to write with their Right Hand. I came home that day and started writing my name over and over again. I have keep Journals throughout life about the good times and not so good times, (13 Children siblings, not all living with me as I grew up was interesting true life stories with lots of Brothers who has many talents but Music was a talent that was shared from our Dad ). My family The Premo's have many gifted Musicians in the family. I used my artistic ability to write stories as a young child and use different forms of art plus I took Ballet & taught Ballet in my teen along with Tap dancing & threw a Baton as a child . In college helped out teaching Ballet to 4 yr & 5yr old and enjoyed teaching Ballet along with Teaching Pottery. Also Love Yoga great for the Body and Soul.
