One day when I returned from getting groceries, he wanted to know where I had been. "You know where I have been, getting groceries." He was acting all crazy. He pulled a gun out of his shirt and pointed it at me. The kids were there, so I talked him into letting me call his sister to come and pick up the kids and then we could talk. After his sister left with the kids we got into this big argument. He kept waving the gun in my face saying "He was going to kill me and then himself".

I told him I wasn't worth killing, that the kids would need one of us, that if he was going to kill me to go ahead and get it over with." We sat for four hours with him holding the gun under my chin.

Autorenporträt
I have lived in the south all of my life and I don't think I would be happy in any other place. I raised four wonderful children. I received my GED in 1976. I was able to graduate along with my son. When the children were older, they didn't take up so much of my time. I started teaching myself how to paint. I would take pictures out of magazines and paint them. After a while I felt like I could show my own paintings. I sold quite a few but they were few and far between. When my sister had her book done, she asked if I would do her illustrations. I did and they turned out good. I never had any writing experience. I wanted to try my hand at it. It has taken me a long time on this book to do it like I did with my painting. I painted what I was seeing. With the book I would write what I was feeling. I wrote about my life as a child. I was hoping that some of the things I had to endure would help someone in the same situation. When they might feel the only option, they had to end it all. As time goes by you will be glad you didn't take that wrong turn. I don't sit around and blame what life has thrown at me. I am so glad that I was able to see my kids grow up, see my grand-kids and my great-grand-kids. Amara Rose
