Roxann Latimer: I am a writer, artist, poet and entrepreneur.

Writing is my second career as I was a social worker for over fifteen years.

I am a native Californian, born and raised in Santa Monica, I lived in Los Angeles for some years working as a social worker before migrating to San Diego, where I lived for ten years. During the time I lived in San Diego, I traveled to West Africa and Europe and started an import export business. I also taught journalism at San Diego State University for their at risk youth program. My mother and I started a non profit agency that began by housing homeless and battered women and today provides medical supplies and equipment to needing nations. My writing began at an early age. I can remember writing and illustrating my own stories when I was five years old. My mother is an avid reader and passed on the joy of reading to me. I read fiction, non fiction, history, mysteries, romance… I love writing because it allows me to become apart of the different characters and to express and tell stories close to my heart.
