: About Me

I have written for newspapers, magazines and online publications, including Helium and Demand Studios. I love the challenges of research and learning new things. 

I enjoy reading, gardening and crafting with recycled or re-purposed material. I also enjoy playing video games of all sorts.

My passion is ...

My parents always told me ...

My favorite memory ...

is the vacations I used to take with my family to Lake Michigan.

Why I write ...

I write because I love it. It's the best way for me to express myself and learn new things about the world we live in.

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

Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein, hooked on Glee and Survivor, and listening to the wide range of music on my MP3 player. Everything but polka.

My first job ...

was at a library. Not counting writing, it was the best job ever.

My best moment ...

was when my first article was published in the newspaper.

My inspiration ...

is my husband. Whenever I'm running low on ideas he says, "Hey, have you thought about this?" or "What if..."

Suddenly, the ship is surrounded by a thick, green fog, then completely vanishes from sight, crew and all. The ship appears at the harbor in Norfolk, Virginia, then disappears again and reappears in Philadelphia.
