Amy Johnson
	First and foremost a mother, secondly a poet...I grew up a small town girl in rural West Tennessee. I began writing poetry as a hobby at the age of fourteen. Though I have won several awards, I never dreamed my writing would take me here...to this inner circle. It is such an honor to be a part of this group of talented people, not just poetically, but personally. I see this organization as a way for us all to contribute to society in hopes of making this world a better place.
