I feel in love with writing in the 3rd grade. Life got in the way and after many different careers and a couple of children, I finally got the opportunity to write on a full time basis. The result was my dubut novella, A Complicated Life in a Small Town, which was published in February of this year. I enjoy "talking shop" with other writers and giving advice to those who are trying to get published. I have a daily blog called http://animaasity.com where I share lifes up's and down's with friends, family and complete strangers.
