Hello, my name is Cassie. I am mostly happily married to my handsome number one supporter, Craig, who has been consistently in my life since 1984. I am a mother of 6 beautiful-at times adorable-sometimes unpredicatable children. 
My five arrows are: Craig Jr., Donovan, Christopher, Daniel and Cameron. My one dove: Desirae.
My love for writing began when I was four years old. I had been disobedient to my mother and she sent me to my room. I sat in my perfectly sized chair, looking around my room and finally gazing upon the plaque on the wall that had my name on it. I took out my pencil and paper and attempted to write my name. Ever so proudly, I ran to show my mother what I had done for the first time in my little life. She beamed with excitement and pride…my “time out” was no longer remembered. (ha-ha)
As the years of schooling went on, I began to write stories based on what was happening around me. At age 13, I purchased my first journal. It was a light blue hard back journal with a picture of a small tree. My first story was about a boy and girl who were having relationship problems. When I think back on that day, one thing enters my mind: What kind of relationship problems does a 13 year old have? Shouldn’t she be outside jumping rope, baking cookies with Grandmom or rearranging her Barbie dolls? Shouldn’t he be playing football with his friends or building some type of gadget with his Dad? Well, if I could rewind the clock to that day…I’d still prefer writing to jumping rope.
By the time I reached my sophomore year in high school, I knew I wanted to be a Journalist and Author. I signed up for Journalism class and the school newspaper. Not only did I have many great opportunities to write, but as God would have it, I met the love of my life in Journalism class. What a double blessing!!
As I continue to “write the vision and make it plain” I know that the Lord will bring it to pass.
“The fact that I am a woman does not make me a different kind of Christian, but the fact that I am a Christian does make me a different kind of woman. For I have accepted God’s idea of me, and my whole life is an offering back to Him of all that I am and all that He wants me to be.” (Elisabeth Elliott)
