KATHLEEN OAKWOOD

Writing since my teens I've written over 200 pieces, some of which I am lucky enough to have Published.

----------------------------------------------

Known best for my

MILITARY POETRY and CHILDREN'S STORIES

Including 'Fae's Quest' Children's Adventure Series, and 'Whispers On The Wind' Memorial Poetry Collection, 'It's All Your Fault, Syd and Sly,' 'Fuzzy Buzz-wuzz and Bizzwizz,' The House,

among others and...

The latest Writing Projects and most recent Novel that I am Writing is called

'In the Shadow of a Life.'

-----------------------------------------------

My choice to Write

These days I write more than ever before, and about anything that I am able to.

I use writing as an emotional release.
It is far cheaper than any Psychologist or Counsellor!

My best known quote is probably

'Let the Pen Possess you.'

Writing is my

'Life In A World Of Words'

VISIT MY OFFICIAL WEBSITE BELOW

kathleenoakwood.co,uk

Nicknamed 'Patch,' I am an active promoter of PTSD, trying to bring more awareness to this terrible affliction.

I have written many things in the promotion of it, including a Book, a Memorial Website, and more recently an Article called 'Military Mayhem' which can be found in my profile here, among other works.

Life is so short, and none of us is ever guaranteed tomorrow.

So laugh and love and live well my friends, because Life IS a gift, and it is taken back one day at a time....

“If Dance is the language of the Soul, Art the vision of it, Music the sound of it;
then Poetry is the expression of it.”

'To be Faithful in Adversity.'

On request I am posting this for an Anti-Bullying Campaign. Please Copy-Paste this onto your page to help bring Awareness to this terrible behaviour.

Thank you.

Dear Bullies,

That boy you punched in the hall today; commited suicide just a few minutes ago. That girl you called a slut in class today; she's a virgin. That boy you called lame; has to work every night to support his family. That girl you pushed down the other day; is already being abused at home. The girl you just called ugly? She has developed an eating disorder. The boy you just tripped? His dad is in jail. See that man with the ugly scars? He fought for his country. That guy you just made fun of for crying? His mother is dying. You think you know them? Guess what, you don't. Copy and Paste this to your profile if you are against bullying. I bet 99% of you wont.

IF U HAVE A HEART, YOU WILL COPY AND PASTE THIS ON YOUR PROFILE TOO STOP BULLYING!
