Cynthia was born and raised in St. Louis. She has three older sisters, two beautiful nieces, three handsome nephews and now two adorable great nieces. Her father, whom she never met, was African-American, and her mother is half Irish and half Indian. One of Cynthia’s older sisters will have nothing to do with her because she is half black.Cynthia grew up in a tough neighborhood, and saw many things that no little girl should have to see. She got involved with a lot of things and a lot of people who she had no business getting involved with, and dated a few people who were involved in criminal activities.Going through the motions for a long time trying to figure out her place in life, Cynthia wasn’t sure what God put her on Earth to do. Her teachers always encouraged her talent for writing, but she never believed she could do it for a living, as there were no Vickie Stringers when she was coming up, and had no role models. Thankfully, things have since changed.
