I am a single mother of a beautiful little girl named Ashley. I am 32 years of age and I write; Poetry, editorials, articles on religion and children, and stories. I just published my first book which will be in stores July 7th Cherokee Wisdom Lives on Through Our Words it is currently available on publishamerica.com and amazon.com. You can view my poetry, columns, and stories at www.allpoetry.com/lilfeathercherokee as well as learn more about me and my heritage through my site www.freewebs.com/spirit_cherokee . My inspirations for my writing are my daughter, family, God and the traumatic childhood I had. I am a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and an activist in raising awareness of this horrible crime against the innocence of children.
I have been a mother for eleven years, the best work and most rewarding job I have ever had; I also worked for the Department of Child Support Enforcement as a support enforcement specialist and the Council for Exceptional Children. A non profit organization that advocates for better education polices for the exceptionally diverse student population. My volunteering jobs include working for Arlington Housing Corporation, which provides low income housing grants and home improvement grants to low income families in the Arlington area; and, Arlington public schools where I helped out in the ED center in an administrative assistant capacity. Currently I am unemployed and trying to find a job.
In an effort to continually educate and better myself, I have enrolled here at Axia College to pursue a degree in business, I have two blocks of classes left before I graduate. I also have plans to start my own foundation (Our Children) www.freewebs.com/tammyknott , plug, and want to obtain my masters in Early Childhood education as well as a doctorate in Early Childhood Psychology. I am hopeful that having a degree will afford me better job opportunities so that I can continue to provide for my family until I complete my education goals and start working on my foundation in earnest.
I am eager to meet new people who share my interests or offer me new insight on other cultures and beliefs.
