: About Me

I always find it hard to write "About Me" sections. I suppose it's mainly because I'm a humble individual who never likes to brag about my accomplishments. But in order for you to know about me, I will tell you a little about myself.

My love of writing began in elementary school when my first grade class had to write a story. My story "The Fox and the Duck," won out of the entire first grade level and was showcased in the cafeteria. Throughout high school I tried several different genres: sci-fi, drama, crime & mystery, and romance.

Since then I have published one book, several dozen articles, several more dozen blog posts and reviews, and a few biographies and web content.

I write to bring characters alive. I write to experience the joys and sadness's of different situations. When someone reads something I wrote and come away feeling touched, I know that I've been a successful writer.

I have a life other than writing and I use that life (and all of the joys and heartaches that come with it) to make my writing better.
