Background
Information
|
|
At age ten, Lida wrote plays and short stories. After attempting such occupations as air traffic controller, laboratory technician, real estate agent and legal assistant, she's back to her original choice -- writer.
Over the past few years, she has completed the first five chapters of five different novels. These are best described as a dark fantasy set in another universe, a contemporary urban fantasy, a fantasy set in the Old West, an epic fantasy and a supernatural murder mystery.
In October 1997, she discovered the internet and as a result her fiction writing slowed to a trickle. She had a lot of fun creating three virtual domains, a bookstore and an ezine. She says there is something seductive about having 20mb of space to fill with your own creative works.
In January 1999, Lida built a publishing house from the ground up. She finally decided all these internet endeavors were simply clever ways to procrastinate about writing.
She is now determined to take up her partial novels and finish them one by one. Stay tuned...
