About Me

I live in the Puca's Forest deep in the magical land of Texas where I write Fantasy and Historical Romance while munching on ice cubes. My greatest achievement to date is becoming the family scandal by selling my first work to the lovely people at Phaze.
I've since sold a fantasy novel to Mojocastle for which I am doing the cover art and illustrations. And I have several other works in progress.

Fall

Well, I'm wondering what sort of things one puts in a blog.  I was never much of a diary keeper, I always forgot to write anything down.  So this should be an interesting experiment.  ...
