My real name is often confused for something else, misspelled, and otherwise mutilated. I started saying "Bob" when asked for my name after ordering at a local Starbuck's. It just kind of stuck and I use it often for simplicity. When I tried to use it here, I was told I couldn't (someone or something is always telling me what I can and cannot do), so I added my real initials. Good question!

My "angel icon" is a symbol of good, means I am a good and caring person. "I am" means to accept me for what I am. "Pamela" is my real name, it means honey; all sweetness. "313" is the month and day I was born.

I was born at home and an aunt stayed a few days to help take care of me. My name is Phillip which she said real fast, sounded like Flip. Became my nickname until I entered the military.

I blame my dad, he liked Robert E. Lee and had a friend named Bob who died in WW2. I asked my parents to change my name because I don’t like being named after a civil war general and a WW2 hero. They refused and as I grew up the name didn’t matter after a while.

Tommy (Thomas) is not my given name.As a little kid I had 3 uncles & 5 cousins & a grandfather all with the same first name as me,due to the Scottish tradition of naming one of your sons after you father.Very confusing at times.Hence I was dubbed Tommy amongst my family & it stuck.

Greed, family, murder, love,FBI, and a hell of a chase. I research it for months. The story is fiction, everything else is a fact. If I say an eagle has 7,000 feathers, bank on it! Its educational. I just hope the FBI has a sense of humor. However, I did an on line search for making land mines. I decided some fool would try it so I left out a few parts. It's more of a family with a love story. Not so much about the FBI, or technical stuff.
The main part is a surprise.
I can promise you it has never been written before.
It's being read now. I'm sweating bullets. When I get it sign to a publishing company, I can say more.
Thanks for asking Yvonne, I loved writing this novel. It was the best time I've ever had! I laughed and cried writing it.
The name is The Daisy, which may be changed to The Daisies.
Thanks again.

I do a lot of shooting as a hobby. So, it was just natural. The pronunciation of the word is similar to how many words spoken in Maine often tend to come out of peoples mouths.
