About Me



Get Myspace Layouts @ CodeMyLayout.com
"We cannot live for ourselves alone. Our lives are connected by a thousand invisible threads… our actions run as causes and return to us as results."Herman Melville (1819 - 1891)
I'm a mommy, housewife, restaurant owner, artist and writer. Creativity drives me. Sometimes it's good, at others it's a curse. It runs in cycles. Sometimes I get the itch to paint at others I want to sew. Right now I'm itching to write, and I write entirely too much!
I'm heavily involved in two online writing groups on Writing.com, and co-moderate one of them. If you're a writer and you're looking for a place to connect with other writers to share critiques, I recommend that site as a place to start. I belong to "The Novel Workshop". It's a place that leads to many genre specific author groups. If you're serious about getting a novel done, go there.
I edit for e-publishers, Forbidden Publications and loveyoudivine. This takes up much of my down time and keeps me motivated to write (like I need more motivation for that). I also design cover art for Forbidden, loveyoudivine and Amira Press.
If you want to know the darker side of me, visit my alter ego at: RabiyahBooks.com where I write under the name Anastasia Rabiyah. The genres I pen are Dark Fantasy and Erotic Romance, sometimes blending the two.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


I'd like to meet my internet buddies, the ones I talk to everyday that have become a part of my life as friends and confidants. They've proven the best friends I've ever had, there when I need company, a laugh or when I want to cowrite something and not feel like a doofus for having such a whacked imagination.
There aren't many famous people I really want to meet. Elton John is welcome to sing at my house as is Howie Day. I'll pay 'em with brownies- homemade not that boxed stuff.
I love the art of Michael Whelan and also John Avon who does work for Wizards of the Coast and makes some cool land cards for the Magic game. Check out John's website at JohnAvon.com and you can fall in love too!
