"If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." - Toni Morrison
Sometimes, when I finish reading a book series, I wish I had learned more about what happened to characters other than those the author focused on. Other times, I think of stories I'd like to read, but can't find anything remotely similar.  Either way, that quote is the guiding principle for my writing.

My Twitter handle was taken here, so I used my Words with Friends name (and am always on the lookout for new competitors!). I'm active in the local barre scene; and, while I don't smoke and rarely drink, I can't turn down a dirty chai.
