My influences have grown broader as I've furthered my education.  I have much more respect for the classics now; Thomas Hardy's The Mayor of Casterbridge is a favorite, along with the works of all the Romantics.

I completed several novels in high school and did not let college slow my output.  As a sophomore at Arkansas State, I published Sisters with Publish America.  This was followed less than two years later by a short novella called The Romance Murders.

The line by my picture perfectly describes me.  I'm just another English major trying to get a break.  My writing has changed since I published Sisters in 2003; I'm working on several projects and will pursue a publisher for the one I'm most proud of.
