About Me

I'm a High Heel Obsessed Southern Lady of short stature.. hey I'm almost 5'6" in 3" heels! I love all things art related, self taught in oils, acrylics and watercolour, with a growing desire within me to do more and more comic & fantasy sketches. Working on the inking and colouring processes keeps me busy. Love comics for the art, I have to admit, I don't actually read them (sounds sort of like *reading* Playboy hehe) but the art just blows me away and inspires me so much. Absolutely adore online role playing games, going back to the original Diablo I days, got hooked on Evercrack (Everquest) and enjoyed a nice stint with Diablo II and Sacred before becoming enamoured of Guild Wars If you haven't played Guild Wars, it's worth the bundled price to get the first game with the stand alone expansions, it's free to play every month, and I've yet to get bored, the strong point being it's not an EQ or WoW where raids take hours, with my schedule I can literally stop and pick the game up later, it helps that I play with a really great understanding friend too, and if I have to go, my set of mercenary heroes stay, leaving a nearly full party to finish a task!
Lately I've been beta testing Mythos, one of the new Flagship Studios (hi Max!) games, and I'm having a BLAST. It's fun, no grind, and just the thing for me right now! go MYTHOS! You can check em out at www.mythos.com

My chosen career was in finance, but progressively debilitating Migraines forced me to stop work in '96. I'm currently caretaker of my husband who has suffered a traumatic brain injury and requires a lot of supervision and my Mom, who has mobility problems and we are all still dealing with the loss of my Dad in September 07 after a brave and long fight against lung cancer. Music, art, gaming (Guild Wars !) (Mythos!) and flannel sheets are my escapes! I do write a bit, fantasy type stories, backgrounds for favorite RPG characters, I'll be trying to get some of those into the blog soon.

My vices are Diet Dr Pepper, espresso (scratch that, I have to find new vices! apparently those vices aren't a good thing for ulcers).


I love cats, my beliefs are Native American and my spirit guide is a black panther.


If I were a cat my pedigree would be Cherokee/Dutch/Irish/Seminole - which makes for a purring cat with green eyes, black hair and a fiery temper!



Mythos is a multiplayer computer game under development by Flagship Studios. The game is similar in style to the Diablo series utilizing a similar interface and perspective, extensive map and item randomization, and a high fantasy setting. The game is being created by the recently formed Flagship Seattle, and its development is led by Travis Baldree, creator of the action RPG FATE. The game started as an action RPG intended to test the networking technology behind the multiplayer component of Flagship Studios' Hellgate: London, but has since grown into an independent game scheduled for a separate release. The game is currently in a closed beta testing stage.
