Kimmy Van Kooten, first and foremost is a wife and mother of 11 children.
Kimmy spends what little free time she has "freelancing" her poetry,
short stories, pen and ink drawings, photography and graphic design works, while incorporating God and family life,
growing up on the farm , trials of life, nature,
romance and a little humor of course
"I like the variety in life
seen through my eyes of
everything I write..."
From the Upper Lake in northern New Jersey,
to the lower Lehigh Valley in Allentown, PA...
to the sands of Daytona Beach and, now...
the quiet and quaint of Saint Augustine, Florida~
I have lived!...therefore, I write!
Kimmy is the 7th child of 16, so, to find a hiding place
to collect a bit of silence in some little nook,
was and still is her quest, yes, even with their brood!
