I love writing. I think it comes from a great love of reading. I learned to read at 4 years old. My Dad was a teacher and I read real books by the age of 8, reading everything I could get my hands on. I was one of those kids who would read the back of the cereal box while I ate. I began to write stories as a child and started my first novel at 15. It isn't done yet but I plan to finish it someday.

Since then, I have done so much writing and loved most of it, been paid for some of it and plan to continue until I die.

If you want something written, let me know. I'll not only do a really fine job, I'll enjoy it!

Happy Reading!
