Their names are included on a muster list of the Trail of Tears, and their strength has inspired me to write the stories that they might have told.My own story began in the small town of Stilwell, Oklahoma, where I have lived most of my life. By twenty-four, I was married with two children, teaching language arts at Stilwell Junior High School. I diversified my career, eventually retiring as the librarian of Siloam Springs Middle School in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, in 2010.Even though I returned to work temporarily as a part-time library clerk at Stilwell Public Library, I found time to pursue my passion-writing. For the next seven years, I was published in Guidepost Magazine, the Oklahoma Genealogical Society Quarterly, the Green Country Anthology, the Starwatch Anthology 37, Saddlebag Dispatches, and in various newspapers and newsletters.
