Although I often write for work, my favorite writing is always the times I write just for me. It's a release, especially when something is important to me. Other times, words just kind of get stuck in my head until I give in and write them down...

How did I get my name?

I was born with the hiccups. The first time my daddy saw me, he was horrified. He told everyone who would listen that I was the ugliest baby he had ever seen and that I sounded just like a cricket. Since that day, I have always been known as Cricket.
