Have you ever wondered what it would be like to attend 18 different schools by the 10th grade? Ask me! Growing up in a military family had its challenges but it also provided me with an abundance of raw material for my stories.
While writing has always been my passion, I've come up with creative ways of supporting my writing habit. I've worked in a feed and tack shop, as a dog groomer, a fragrance consultant, collection agent, bookkeepter,legal secretary, medical transcriptionist, a ghost writer and administrative assistant in a middle school.
Life, for me, is always interesting!
Accomplishments: An editor for Treble Heart Books, Connie also judges national and international writing contests: The RITA, The Award of Excellence, The Orange Rose, The Golden Heart, and The EPPIES. She is a member of RWA, Nat'l, Orange County, ChickLit of America, International Chapter of Romance Writers and the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators. She has served on the board of the International Chapter of Romance Writers.
