I'm an avid reader of mystery/suspense thrillers, and enjoy writing them too. I'm currently working on several short stories -- which I'm posting on here. I joined WattPad in March 2013, and have been really impressed with all the supportive, cool and offbeat people hanging around.

Living in Tampa, Florida, I write a blog about the home building industry (my daytime job) and wrote a monthly column for New Tampa Style. I've lived in Tampa for 13 years now. I moved here from Grapevine, Texas --- just outside of Dallas. Most of my stories take place in either Florida or Texas. I think both states provide a great backdrop.

Please message me. I love trading reads and would very much like to check out your story and comment. Just PM. And, any thoughts or comments you have on my stories would be greatly appreciated!
