Author bio:

I met Junot Díaz a few years ago and seeing as he's my second-most-favorite author, I thought that was pretty exciting.

I'm really bad at explaining myself, which is surprising as I talk so much--I like to tell people it's because I like to hear my voice. In real life, when you first meet me, unless I feel an insta-bond, I'm ridiculously quiet. And then you get to know me, and you wish I'd stayed quiet. Online... Well, I seem to skip the quiet step.

I love lit fic and fantasy in terms of literature, and I write a mess of a little bit everything.

I spend a lot of time at home with my dogs, exercising, and even more time at work and sitting in the car--I hate sitting. Which can make writing difficult sometimes--believe me!

I try to be happy and have fun; I go out a lot in the summer, and try to find things to entertain myself in the winter (too cold). Just message me if you're curious about anything.
