August/September 2003 I declared August 21, 2003 "My Independence Day" and decided to follow my heart and try my hand at writing. For years I said things like "someday I'll write a book," and " I wish I were an artist or a writer". I finally realized that someday would never come unless I did something about it. One month later I gave notice at work and left "cubicle land" for good to pursue my dreams. I had no job and no idea how it was going to happen. One month later I learned my first article would be published. It's been an interesting journey since then!
