When I was eight or nine, I started making my own versions of the Goosebumps books. Though they  were terrible stories, I discovered a love of writing and creating characters that I could never be. By the time I was eleven, I had completed my first novel- a 121,000 word, 500+ page urban fantasy that I rewrote in my adult years, and still sits on my shelf today.  Since then I have written thirty books,  part of which is a ten-novel series. I never put much effort into trying to get published, but I can't give up  the dream. God made me a writer for a reason. 
Otherwise, I'm a wife and stay-at-home mom of four, a landscape painter, avid reader, and lover of  Jesus and thunderstorms.
