About Me

I pay the bills as an attorney, but I am also a writer, mother, hypochondriac, wife, poor housekeeper (ok it extends to my office as well), armchair psychologist, internal vehicle vocalist, gifted and special education advocate, children's theme party planner and supporter of the Tourette Syndrome Association. This list is in no particular order.I have written a children's story (submitted for publication) and I am currently working on a young adult fiction novel as well as a chick lit novel. Of course, I have many other story ideas but have little time to write!I love to laugh and enjoy anyone with great sense of humor.I also love having my house cleaned by a person other than myself.This profile was edited with The CricketSoda Myspace Editor

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Writers, editors, literary agents, publishers and anyone else with interest or presence in the young adult, children's literature or chick lit genres.Oh, and if you are quick witted and intelligent, I would like to chat with you as well (unless it is about politics, which I prefer not discuss, with anyone).I would also like to hear from any other parents of gifted children, or parents of children with or individuals who have Tourette Syndrome.
