Aimed at sharing the true identities and talents of the Ranchers at DHR, the SEE ME campaign showcases the unique stories of those we serve and gives readers an inside look into their life at Down Home Ranch. Follow along as we tell you the story of  Natalie…

Name: Natalie
Age: 37
Rancher Since: November 2008
Favorite Hobby: Listening to music and reading books

Happy and proud is how Natalie feels about being an author. Natalie began freelance writing when she was sixteen years old. Over the years, she has written many poems and short stories, but her favorite piece is a poem she wrote for a friend that moved back to Germany. Natalie finds inspiration through various outlets, one of them being her favorite author, Bernadette Marie, who specializes in romance novels with a happily-ever-after ending. Natalie is working on a romantic short story of her own, so stay tuned! When Natalie was asked what advice she would give to an aspiring Author, she stated “First do a layout of what you want to write, then get going! If you end up with writers block, do not give up.” It is worth it when you finish!
