: About Me

I'm a small town girl with a big imagination. I learned at a very young age that the written word is all-powerful, as well as it's effect on those brave enough to drink it in.

Over the years growing up, I annoyed our tiny town's librarian constantly with hopes of new books, magazines, and videos, anything that would feed my ever-expanding imagination.

Eventually, my imagination became too big to stay in my head. It began to overflow onto paper, and THAT'S when the fun began! As my dreams grew, so did my stories, as well as my audiences, until one day, it was suggested I try to get published.

So here I am, eager to share with more than just close friends and family the fruits of my daydreams and writing labors. I am eager to find others to dream with me, write with me, inspire me and in return be inspired by me...and hopefully, I will display enough talent to write full time!

...Let the fun begin!

My passion is ...

Fantasy, dreaming, and translating it into words

I know too much about ...

Being lost in translation

My parents always told me ...

"Learn from your past...lest you repeat it."

My childhood ambition ...

To be a writer...to share with the world what I dream every day

My favorite memory ...

A warm fire, a summer night, and a sky full of stars to dream under

Why I write ...

To express feelings that overflow from my heart, to my head and long to be shared and to inspire others

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

Savage

My first job ...

A nanny for a couple back home

My best moment ...

Is every moment during a good dream.

My inspiration ...

Everything that exists around me

"Indoor gymnasium," she could hear her father's impressed voice saying, as they read over college brochures a year earlier. Max closed her eyes, wishing with all her heart to be back in that moment, any moment, were her parents were alive again. A loud noise broke h...
