About Me

CURRENT MOON lunar phaseIn the Middle Eastern desert all is not as it seems. Tribal bands wander the sands looking for a lost temple, seeking to release a powerful demon. For Matthew, it's another assignment. For Manara finding the temple is her destiny and the only hope she has of saving her people, the ancient Sumerians.To Read an excerpt, click on the sword.What I do - I'm a computer graphics design artist, a fiction editor, recently attained my diploma in Private Investigation, and often it seems I'm a complaint center, councellor and a guide. *groan* I work from home which eliminates some problems, but opens up a whole batch of new ones. *shakes head* Getting peace and quiet from my 4 daughters is almost impossible. Thank the Goddess and Consort for school, a decent bed time and my natural want to keep vampire hours. LOL!! I am NOT a morning person unless of course work decides that I must be.What I am - You mean besides tired? LOL!! I am working towards becoming a Druid Priestess, but my Mentor/Priestess says I don't spend enough time on my lessons. *grin* The Powers That Be, understand that sometimes life slows us down on the path we are destined to tread/people that we are to become. I've been studying/researching herbal healing for about 8 years on and off.Hmm, I have an 'off the wall', dry and sometimes (okay, usually) sarcastic sense of humor and I do laugh at every available opportunity. Life is meant to live and enjoy, you don't get another chance at it - until the next one comes around and it could be a while.I love tattoos...I've got 5 and eventually I'll get around to designing the one that I have in mind. Finding an artist that can do it though, has proven to be quite a problem.What I'd like to do - Travel. I want to visit Egypt, Ireland, Scotland, Spain, Italy, Greece...the list goes on and on. To be able to see these places, truly experience them, so I can soak up and revel in the culture and surroundings is and has been a goal of mine for a long time...which I'm working towards attaining. But, I'd have to bring my laptop and have at least reasonable internet access so I could get in and send off my work. *grin* ..... -- Get this widget!

My Interests

*grin* I have a lot. Hmm, lets see, there's Art, Books, Herbal/Natural Healing, Horses (I love to ride, train and care for them), Dragons, Big Cats, Wolves, Cars, Ancient Civilizations, The Old Religions, Research, All Things Native American Indian, Nature, Hiking, Things Mystical and Magick, Weapons, both ancient and modern....that's about all I can think of at the moment. If something catches my eye, I'm more than happy to take off on a tangent and follow it until I'm satisfied with what I've learned.
