After living in Indiana, Florida, Missouri, Florida again, Ohio, and Pasadena and Burbank, California, Delena has finally settled down with her husband and five Yorkies (Yes, I said five, soon to be six) on a mountaintop in Prescott, Arizona. Her one small claim to notoriety is that she is one of 450,000 people with two different colored eyes. She has worked in a fast-food restaurant, as a data entry clerk, bookkeeper, technical writer, web designer and programmer, systems analyst, and lastly as a successful business owner. She is now living her lifelong dream of writing novels and short stories while observing the coyotes, deer, bobcats, javelina, raccoons, squirrels, and those annoying, but adorable, bunny rabbits that eat all of her herbs.
A few weeks ago a friend called me to tell me that Oprah Winfrey was doing a show on those who were raised in the foster care system. She asked me to consider writing a letter. After much thought, I wrote a letter and submitted it. Now, I have no illusions about receiving a response, however, I thought perhaps my readers would gain a better insight into who I am.
This letter is rather graphic, so consider that before clicking this link. Oprah |
