SOME INTERESTING (RANDOM) FACTS ABOUT ME! By Cynthia Hickey

I've been on television twice! (the news and a documentary about pickles)



I quit the day job in May 2013 and now make a living as an author and small press owner.


I have seven children. (We're a your's, mine, and ours family).


I expect people to use a bit of common sense.


While I live in Arizona, I want to someday move back to Arkansas.


I pride myself on my sloppy handwriting (A high school civics teacher said those with sloppy handwriting thought faster than their hands could move)


If I were younger, I'd be a storm chaser or forensic investigator.


I knocked "getting a tattoo" off my bucket list recently.


I have more story ideas to write than I probably have years to live.


I LOVE my job.


Sometimes, when I'm writing a funny scene in a book, I laugh out loud then look around to see if anyone caught me. The same thing when writing a sad scene, except I cry.


I LOVE Jesus!


I don't cry easily.


While I found many things humorous, I don't often laugh out loud.


I don't have patience for stupidity.


I don't judge.


I'm harder on myself than anyone else could possibly be.


I think these points very random. :)
