DenaEBolton last signed in Oct 29 2009 and has been on Bukisa since Jan 18, 2009.
I have recently joined the ranks of freelance writers. Currently I write for eHow, The Examiner, and Associated Content. I have a BA in Political Science and German with post-graduate work in Political Science (specializing in Latin American Politics). I have extremely varied interests -- from politics to gardening. (I have also completed the coursework for the TN Master Gardener program.) I have written for various local publications over the years, including such topics as: gardening, restaurant reviews, reviews of area "hotspots," profiles, and even columns on the NFL and the Tennessee Titans. After many years in sales, I am now committed to making a living as a writer, which is my first love.
