I finally made the decision to try to write a novel in the Spring, 2013. I've wanted to be an author for as long as I could remember but I've always feared the rejection. Now, with the growing support of indie authors and self-publishing my fear of rejection is slowly decreasing. Not to mention, there are only so many stories a mind can contain before they have to burst out and be told.

I have been a book review blogger since 2010. I run a book review website at www.closedthecover.com. I had no idea when I first started it that it would nearly become a second full-time job. I love it and I love the wonderful people I have been fortunate to meet. Through my website I also fundraise for the literacy charity, Room to Read. They are a fantastic organization and I encourage you to check them out.
