The fact that I am feverishly working on my 'debut' still makes me smirk. While I am currently a pre-published writer, I have been writing fiction since high school. I've always been more of the bookworm than the athletic sort, and spent many a weekend during those high school years, holed up in my bedroom with my nose in a book; more often than not, I'd be lost in yet another romance novel.
I guess it should come as no surprise that, even after all these years, THIS is what I want to do. I have been writing romance stories for at least a decade. Only in the last year did I finally make the decision to give an honest effort at becoming published - in hopes to share all these stories with you! While I work to get Tumble Into Me published, I will also share poetry and old short stories as well. These will be added into the Works in Fiction and Poetry pages whenever possible, so visit soon! |
Currently live near the 'The Best Place on Earth' and no I don't mean Disneyland but the ever-beautiful, Vancouver, B.C, Canada. Originally from Scarborough, Ontario, I've moved at least 20 times in my life (been to 13 schools) and I am not part of a military family! I guess the 'gypsy-ness' lived on. After school years, in my mid twenties, I had the fortunate opportunity to work onboard a luxury cruise line - an impulsive decision that had me on a ship three weeks after reading an employment ad in the Georgia Straight! Yes, I was paid to entertain youth onboard and travel to many remarkable coastal cities. The six years spent at sea will always be a major highlight in my life. One thing that was always consistent though, was how much I appreciated coming home. Looking out on the horizon as the airplane descended always reminded me just how lucky I am to live here!

When I am not working at my rent paying day job or battling with my 'Word Monster', I love to read and spend time with my Tortoiseshell Maine Coon Cat Carly. I also enjoy board games & puzzles, spending time outdoors - rain or shine (Vancouverite!), checking out local festivals and events and am a big movie buff. Romantic comedies are my favourite (but that's probably not a surprise), I love Super Hero movies (Marvel anyone!?) and well-written suspenseful psychological thrillers.
