I have been a writer since childhood, devouring cheap, spiral journals with heated scribbles until flimsy plastic bins could no longer hold them.
My love of writing spans from poetry to fiction work. As a huge fan of the fantasy genre, I recently released my first novel,The Defiled and The Second Son. Additionally, I have a fantasy trilogy, a lengthy endeavor (and my third child in every way imaginable) that I am nurturing into debut readiness.
I love a great fantasy read and my newest favorite is The Young Elites series by Marie Lu. My greatest influence is Jacqueline Carey and I think The Kushiel series she wrote is a cult classic.
I also enjoy thought provoking books like Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch or The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.
I live in the quiet country of Virginia with my husband and two, not-so-quiet boys. I have a sweet Havamaltzu (just think adorable little poof ball) and a charismatic love bird that bosses everyone around.
