My pen name is Teesa Mee, but friends and family call me Terrie. I was born and raised in Southwest Detroit and lived there until I married in 1979. Unable to have children, we adopted our son through Toledo, OH Catholic Social Services in 1984. In 1986, I won the “Missing Case of Miller Light” hidden in Detroit. The $10,000 prize gave us the means to adopt our daughter from Seoul, South Korea in 1987. My world nearly ended when our son hung himself in our garage in February 2008. He was four months shy of his 25th birthday when his struggle with bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder ended. However, my struggle as a survivor was just beginning. After finding hope with a local Survivors of Suicide group, I now do public speaking on behalf of survivors and share with others dealing with suicide, especially other parents. I finally completed my BS IT in Web Development in June 2015, but instead of following that career path, I began an editing career as Indie Editing Services. I get to use my love of reading to earn a living, while helping authors create their best books. In addition to contributing to the anthologies This Beautiful Escape, Warrior Women, and Detours in Our Destinations, I have published a book of poetry, Looking Back: Poems from My Adolescent Self, as well as Thesaurus Erotica.
