Kim Childers
I have self-published three books (all available on Amazon under the pen name of Kim Moss).
"What Matters", "Mosaic", and "Destiny's Edge". I have several more projects in the works.
I won second place in a literary contest having that piece printed within the literary journal as well as a poem. I wrote for a college newspaper having several articles published.
I participated as a stage manager and or actor in two community college ten minute plays as well as a single dramatic monologue at church. I have written a script with a couple more in progress.
I am presently in college finishing up an Interdisciplinary Studies degree with an emphasis on Arts. This includes Creative Writing and Broadcast Communication.
I am getting into Paranormal Investigations, love movies and several television shows (Haven, Sanctuary, Ghost Hunters, Haunted Collector, Ice Road Truckers, The Glades, and many others). My favorite vacation spot at this point is Outerbanks NC. I want to visit the Maine-Nova Scotia area and Vancouver someday. I have recently worked my family ancestry and have discovered over 15 generations from Scotland (it was cool to find that out). I am a former Emergency Medical Technician and Volunteer Firefighter. I have worked in retail for over 23 years (over 9 years in management position). I love books and writing (which is a given or at least it should be).
