Secretly... a few years.
Why not before?
I never thought I could. When I was growing up, my mom gave my spelling books and homework to my little brothers because they would be president someday. I would marry a rich man.
What changed?
I did. I had a life changing experience three years ago. I decided to face my fears and live. It is not always easy, but I am grateful for every moment.
How did AGGI start?
I was sitting at the dinner table with my children. We were talking about weird things parents say to their kids and they simply believe them. An example is, a watermelon will grow in your stomach if you eat the seeds. Think about it... that is scary!
That is when my character Aggi popped into my head. She was born, and now I need to tell her story.

Aggi -- I love the name.
Wonder how you came up with it...
Don't know if you saw the Maya Angelou quote I put on Twitter, today: "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you."
Writing is so liberating. I'm going to follow your story... and walk with you while you write it. :-)
Don't forget to DANCE!
Warm hugs and lots of love,
Mudd a.k.a. Oza (Oza is my Aggi)
