My dad used to read me The Sporting News when I was an infant, and although I didn’t gain his love of sports, I did gain his love of reading! I have a to-read list that I don't think I'll ever find the bottom of, and I've always got my Kindle or a paperback near to hand.
I've been writing since I was in middle school. My early efforts varied from tragic love stories to horror. But when I discovered romance novels in junior high, I knew that I wanted to write them someday. My writing remained a hobby while I studied biology and forensic DNA science. I worked as a molecular biologist and published cancer research before finally leaving the lab and taking up my laptop.
I love all kinds of creative projects, including sewing, cross stitching, crocheting, and making jewelry. I also occasionally lend a hand at my favorite metaphysical store, 13 Magickal Moons of Occoquan, VA. In my spare time, I like to play games, especially The Sims 3, Skyrim, and Rock Band, and watch too many reality television shows.
I currently live in Northern Virginia with my husband, John, of seventeen years. John works for the government during the day and also reads tarot professionally. I have two children who happen to be cats: Morgana Madison and Luna Lavender. MoMo, my first Scottish Fold, is very possessive of me and loves to knead my hair. Luna is the baby, an affectionate Scottish Fold who thinks her name is "Cute."
