She spent years working in the corporate environment, but after her first
poem was shared on a syndicated radio program in 1994, an alternative
career began to emerge and she soon came to the realization that her true
passion was in writing poetry.
Because no promotion or raise received from her boss could ever equal the
satisfaction she felt when she would hear from those whose heart had been
touched by her words, she made the decision to leave the corporate world
behind to pursue her dream, inspiring others through her poems.
Linda focuses on writing about real life, including all of its joys and
sorrows.
Thus, as each new phase of her own life is experienced, so are new
feelings, thoughts and ideas that she feels compelled to express through
her poetry.
Her poems have such a wide public appeal that they have been featured in
best-selling books, major magazines and various publications, read on TV
and radio stations, carved on tombstones and even used as needlepoint
designs by grandmothers!
She credits the support and encouragement of her family and friends for
reaching what she considers true success…the opportunity to combine
what she loves to do with a way to make a living!
