Hi, I’m J. Elaine Cottrell, author of Breana’s Full Circle. I am a retired nurse, so I fill my days with writing. I am not a conventional writer; I’m a story teller. The rules in writing that I don’t know I break, and the rules that I know I bend. My objective is to get the stories out of my head unto the pages, so I could share them with my readers. Rules, regulations and political correctness will sometimes get…..

The more privileged kids would gather around the little Television set with spoons in hand as they ate their corn flakes from little bowls, and tried to…..

The lower middle can barely make it, and the middle is…..

Hi…I’m J. Elaine Cottrell. I’m a retired nurse. I fill my days with writing. I’m not a conventional writer; I’m a Story Teller. The rules of writing that I don’t know I break, and the rules that I know I bend to keep my story flowing.
