Vivian Howard's Put Ups

Vivian Howard's Put Ups

 

Writing a description of yourself is really hard. But under instruction to list the things that make me, me - I’d have to say I’m a two-time author whose young adult self dreamt of being a writer. I’m the mother of a twin boy and girl who once doubted her maternal instincts. I’m a chef who cooks for therapy. I’m a lucky daughter who counts her parents among her friends. And I’m a television personality who can’t bear to look at herself in pictures. My greatest strengths are fearlessness, creativity, enthusiasm and humor. My most frustrating weaknesses are patience, organization and numbers. 

I always thought winning awards was for someone else but I’m happy to say there have been a few folks out there who thought I was worthy of some awards over the years.

If you’re looking for more official bio of sorts, here you go:
