I am a new author with a short story soon to be published with the Wild Rose Press. I also won third place in the 2008 Dawn Thompson Memorial Haunted Hearts contest. I write mostly gothic romances featuring vampires, werewolves and ghosts as well as any other paranormal creature imaginable.
I am married to a wonderful man and I am the mother of two. I inherited my love for reading and writing from my mother. She taught me how to glue a book to my nose and still have a coherent conversation with someone in the same room. I completed my first novel when I was 15. It took me 7 days of my summer vacation to finish. The story was based on a dream I had; a fantasy that still remains one of my favorites. My senior year in high school I took a creative writing class where I learned I could actually make a career out of my hobby. After finishing high school, I got hired at a local Waldenbooks where I went from Seasonal Clerk, to Part-time Bookseller, to Full-time Assistant Manager. I've been working there for over 10 years now. When I became a mother I went part-time to spend time with my children and focus on my writing.
My husband is a German WWII re-enactor who knows everything there is to know about the 1930’s and 40’s, especially regarding Germany. He’s talking me into writing a WWII era story, a romance by my insistence and if I have it my way it’ll have a vampire or two. If anyone is interested in checking out his page, he’s number 1 on my Top Friends list. And remember folks, this is nothing political, it’s just his love for history.
Marc and I have been together for 14 years and in that time we’ve traveled to many places, but my two favorites are Bamburg, Germany and New Orleans, Louisiana. We’re hoping to go back to Europe again someday since I would love to visit Ireland, London and see more of Germany. I’m fascinated with the paranormal and I would love to explore haunted castles! During our stay in Germany, we weren’t lucky enough to have any ghostly encounters. Maybe next time!
