About Shell

Shell is a freelance writer, copywriter, and author. She is a true realist who has learned no matter what you may want in life, you must work for it. Nothing in this world comes easy or cheap. Nonetheless, if you want it bad enough it’s all worth the effort.  Growing up in a small farming community in the Northwest she yearned for adventure that wasn’t accessible in a place surrounded by wheat fields as far as the eye could see. Subsequently, she read and fell in love with books. Shell was able to travel to far away distant lands, different time periods, and alternate realities. Those escapades that were unveiled to her, fashioned a longing for her to write.  Encourage by her sixth grade teacher to become an author, Shell found herself writing anything from poetry to articles in her high school newspaper. Presently she’s a copywriter for Todayz Publishing, author of blogs, and has an advice column on Examiner.com.  Shell lives in Boise, Idaho with her husband and three children.
