However, I've always been an avid reader--classics are my favorite, including Jane Eyre, The Count of Monte Cristo, the entire anthology of Sherlock Holmes, and anything by Jane Austen. These left my head swirling with tales of love, revenge, mystery, and redemption, and for many years, they were my own little escape inside my head--I never really considered writing them down, much less trying to share them with the outside world...
Then the craziest thing happened--my kids started to get older and (slightly) less demanding, and even started helping me out a little more, and one day I sat down at the computer and started to write...and write...and write, and before I was done, I had completed seven novels, with two more fighting to crawl out onto their own pages when I find the time to deposit them there.
In my spare time (wait just a second while I pick myself off the ground--I fell over laughing at that idea) I love to hike, experiment in the kitchen, travel the world, and practice judo. I'm looking forward to my apparently prolific future as an author and I hope you have fun in my universe!view less
