Writer bio
Who am I? Just your average NASCAR lovin' outspoken Southern Girl! A misplaced Texan living on the outskirts of Washington DC. I'm a Paramedic/ER Technician with a knack for writing.
Laughing out loud is one of the things that I do best. I can't carry a tune to save my life and I am always up for new and exciting adventures. I'm a daredevil with a sharp, quick wit. Very feminine with a touch of tom-boyishness. Opinionated, yet open minded. Strong-willed, but know when not to take things too seriously. I'm a Super Hero who is light-hearted enough to laugh at myself. I'm Ferris Bueller in a short skirt.
I was raised by proud Southern parents who instilled generations of family values and traditions that have shaped me into a unique combination of elegance, brawn and brains. I've got...

Writer bio
Howdy, my name is Ron Ripple and with out a doubt NASCAR’s number one fan. I was born and raised in a small town in South Carolina with a population of about 459. It’s basically a town where everyone knows everyone’s business and you can’t walk down to the local grocery store without someone saying your name. Growing up I’ve always wanted to get out of this place and move to the big city. I’ve only had one passion in my life and that passion was NASCAR. It was the only exciting thing in my life, and on every Sunday starting in February and ending in November, you could find me at the local bar drinking a beer watching my boys race for the checkered flag.
When I finally got out of this small town in South Carolina, I decided that I needed to move closer to Darlington so that I could s...
