Kara A. Laughard

I'm a lover of the written word, and recently I've been bitten by the creative bug once again. I've spent the last two years in a depression. I was not aware how deep it ran until I started to pull out of it this past summer. I owe much of the gratitude to my beautiful friends who have shown me time and time again that they are not friends they are family, my blood family (my mom and dad especially) and, last but by no means least Adam, the one true love of my life who has already in two short years followed with me on the ups and downs of my life never once wavering in his love for me, he keeps me sane, and that is enough to make me love him forever. Does that explain who I am, not quite, but it's a start...
