Brief Author Bio:

I started writing when I was 19 years old but put it aside to raise my family. Now, 25 years later, I'm up and running again! (Have been for the past 8 years.) I have two completed novels, a picture book manuscript, and several short stories. I also have no less than 12 other novels 'in the works.' (Huge imagination... not enough time to write it all down! I wish my brain was connected to the computer so my ideas could magically upload!)

I write mostly middle grade and young adult paranormal. My stories usually stem from personal experiences, then my imagination and the 'what if' factor takes over. I find they pull me in all sorts of crazy directions.

And if you're curious about any of my stories, and/or experiences, don't be afraid to ask. :)

I look forward to meeting new writers, and possibly some in the Knoxville/Maryville area. It would be great to have a few writing buddies. (Preferably ones with big shoes so they could give me a swift kick when I'm being lazy!)

Good luck with NaNo! We should ALL become published. :) (I'm not greedy... my dream is to have children read my books and love them... that's all. I hope it's not too much to ask for!)
