Hello, I am Stacey Shores.

I created this website to share with you as a professional and personal outlet, hence the saying, "...Mixing business with pleasure." I will be serving as publisher, editor, as well as web mistress.

There are a couple of ways I could give you the 4-1-1 on me. Chronological order seems to be a little unrealistic because my birth was a very, very, very long time ago! And if I try to make a list from the most to least important - someone's feelings may get hurt (in which case I would have to call a whaamulance and things could get ugly). So, I am gonna mix it up a little bit - no particular listing technique will be used to keep it fair, and I will remain timeless as a result of a lack of birth info (lucky me).

I am a woman - so, of course I am a chocoholic... and I absolutely adore coffee.  I guess you could say I am a coffeeholic! And while I did make a perfect score on the Hunter Safety Course test – the only things I shoot are with my camera!

I am a mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, friend and girlfriend! AND I am proud and privileged to have each and every one of these people who give me those titles in my life.

Most of my life was spent in the Kansas City, MO metro area, moving to St. Joseph, MO a little over seven years ago. First, for a great job, but then I lost what I thought was a great job. Then, I went back to school. Now, I am in search of a career – not just a job.

In May 2007, I Graduate from Missouri Western State University, St. Joseph, MO. I have a B.A. in English with an Emphasis in Technical Communication and a minor in French. Not only did MWSU provide me with the tools for my education, but also gave me an opportunity to become a published photographer, poet and journalist.

Oui, je parle deux langues!
