Author Bio
I've been writing since I was a young girl
- escaping to my room to pour out typical childhood angst in poetry,
essays, short-stories, or whatever else my hand set itself to do. As I
grew, my writing evolved and expanded. After more than 3 decades of
writing - has it really been that long? - I think I've written about
every style out there.
After an extensive
bout with in-depth nonfiction, I've turned my attentions to the joys of
science fiction, fantasy and romantic dramas. The transition was rough,
but I've finally adapted.
As for the personal stuff - I've been
married to my Army sweetheart for more than 2 decades; I have 3
pubescent girls in the "I gotta have it NOW!" stage; too-many finches that
chirp ferociously as I'm coming down the stairs in the morning; a
monster cat that terrifies anyone he thinks doesn't belong (okay,
sometimes he terrifies me, too!); and an old shepard/collie mutt that
slaps its jaws together constantly to show how happy she is that we're
alive. All in all, we're a happy bunch together.
If you'd like to keep up on my
daily/weekly/monthly comings and goings, watch my
blog. I'll try to update
it frequently with tidbits about my world, where I get writing ideas,
new books on the horizon, and all the things that I find interesting
(and I hope will interest you, as well).
Those who are looking for a more
substantial and realistic romantic book (whether identified as a
romance, scifi, or drama), I hope you will give my books a try.
