Francine Roberts Biography

There really isn't much to tell that hasn't been covered in my poetry. Love this site, love the new friends I've made. I am a single woman, work full time, family grown and on their own. When I was in highschool all I wanted to do was write. Life got in the way. Now I have all the time I need to indulge my passion.

attitude of gratitude

Francine, I am a big believer in gratitude as a way of life, and really appreciate your highlighting it in your newest contest. I was also gifted with a membership (though not anonymously) and am profoundly grateful that someone would give the "gift that keeps on giving"! Looking forward to reading the entries to your contest ~ John
