    Derek Ardita

    I am married with four kids and live in Norfolk Va. I'm currently attending school to become an English teacher so between family, work and school I find myself very busy. I write with almost every bit of free time I have and am currently working on a series of short stories entitled: Shadows Beneath the Street Lamp. I have published its first installment called "Lullaby for a Lost Soul." I hope you will continue to check out my work I publish here.
