I am married to Roland Lytle for almost 37 years and have 2 sons and 5 grandchildren. Now that Roland is retired from the military, I work f...

I'm devilish but harmless.
Outside of that I'm still the same crotchety, old, sarcastic, humorous, young at heart curmudgeon. If that doesn't scare you off, good. I welcome contacts with anyone. I've written enough now to realize I'm hopelessly addicted to it. I'd welcome any comments and/or cri...

not much to say, wanna know me then friend me

I am a husband and a father! I work hard to take care of my family, and hope like hell that I am not screwing them up for life!! I fight many demons daily, and I am hoping that I can use writing as an outlet for dealing with some of them.

You may find me sarcastic and that’s probably because I am 😉 If I hurt your feelings, bandaids are on the top shelf of the medicine cabinet, please help yourself

I like to laugh and have fun, that’s what life is about.

I’m pretty useless before my 1st cup of coffee but after ...

Single father, gamer, writer, nerd.

What I post here will be primarily fantasy, mixed in with some PnP gaming memories, and some pure weirdness.

I'm 39yrs old. A mother, a friend, & a care giver. I try to enjoy life and time with my friends. I have a big heart and a short fuse, don't mess with my friends or family and we are all good but please don't mistake my kindness for weakness, that is not the way it is at all.

I've been writing since 2006, when I started doing so to mentally escape the horrors of an abusive marriage. At first, it was some silly little crime novel inspired by Stephen King and James Patterson, and then it moved on to poetry as the way to vent my turbulent emotions.

I began writing ...

But once we met, it was clear that neither of us
