About Me

When I couldn't turn off the "voices in my head" and realized they were characters for books, I sat down at the computer and starting writing. They speak to me on a daily basis! Scary sometimes!Maintaining a sense of humor about it, helps keep everything in perspective and now I am a published author! Though my first writing love is regency romance with a bit of sizzle, I also write hot contemporary stories that'll send you running for a fan or your man.

My Interests

I love reading, WRITING, chatting with friends, dining out (although I like to actually COOK on occasion). Especially love spending time with my kids.

I'd like to meet:

Tempting Tess...available now at Ellora's Cave

Music:

EVERYTHING...depends on the mood. Tend to like classic rock the best.

Movies:

Romantic comedies, epic adventures and fantasy are my FAVES

Television:

Love the political shows. Countdown with Keith Ohlberman and Hardball with Chris Matthews. Adore DEADWOOD. Please bring it back! Other than that..who has the TIME?

Books:

A romance reader, I read everything from sizzling regency romance to paranormal. All froggies at The Frog Pond (Ellora's Cave and Cerridwen Press authors)They ROCK!
