http://www.authorsden.com/lynndarby1  This tells of my past journey.  Who used to be shy?  You wouldn't think so.  But alas, I was.   If it weren't for a radio interview of Katherine Hepburn, my life would have been different.  She admitted that she, too was shy and afraid to do most things, but here is what she said: "Do them anyway!"  Oh my, how that changed my life.   If  Katherine was afraid and did them anyway, then that meant it was a way for me to get to be brave!  I saved a shopping center in my home town. Got to write for a newspaper and had my own community news column.  That led to me doing creative feature articles. And the rest is History from then on.  Read and find out how the possibilities sprouted into realities.
