Born in Belfast, Maine, as (Virginia Brown) in 1958, the third child of
Clarence and Sheila (Roberts) Brown. As a child, she would sit on the
veranda with pen and pad in hand writing for hours upon hours. She had a
journal her mother gave her to write in, that
journal soon turned into tablets of writings, then into notebooks of writings,
and she confesses: "Into now-- a suitcase of writings." She
always dreamed of being a published poet, or a storybook writer, and that one day her
stories and
books
would be read...

VIRGINIA WRIGHT a published author...
After graduating high school class of 1976, she took coursework in
Journalism and Writing. Later while raising children, her writings were published in an Anthology-- Soundings, by
The Poetry Fellowship of Maine. But she first considers herself a published
author when she sold one of her writings to a regional Maine magazine in 1981. She says her dream was realized that day
looking at her work in print and holding the check in her hand, but her
dreams just deepened...

From the Author...
For over 30+ years I have been married to a man who made the military his
career. With living and traveling in Europe there was always an
adventure around every corner- starting with racing around Rome on Vespa's
and attending service at the Vatican,
to traveling by train to Venice. Then there was the ride up Mt. Etna in Sicily on the ski
gondola, to giving birth abroad in Naples, Italy; and I will never
forget the day I participated in a bullfight in Spain in an attempt to win a
bottle of champagne; oh, my! I can
tell you for certain-- there has never been any room for boredom in my life. It was
hard to call any place home while being a military wife, besides living in
Europe, home was also seven different states for myself and family.
My husband and I have two grown sons, Rob and Shane-- a daughter-in-law and
five grandchildren. I presently live in Ohio
with my husband where I write in the hills high above the valley. We
live on our twenty-five acre farm and when I'm not watering our multiple gardens, canning,
cooking, feeding our chickens and dog, my time is spent as a freelance
writer, but these days instead of a pen and pad still in hand, it is
the computer keyboard and a click of the mouse, but I am still doing what I enjoy doing most,
Writing...
