I love to write. I've wanted to put my stories to paper from my early teens. I sent my first book to a publisher in my early twenties and it was turned down. The letter, though, did give me some encouragement to keep writing. However, I thought maybe this wasn't for me. The urge to write never left me. One day I woke up and I made up my mind I was going to follow my dream and write. I wrote my first book in three months. When I received notice my book was accepted by a publisher, I was overjoyed. I haven't stopped writing.

I'm a new author so I haven't had a major award as of yet. I've been on TV and on the radio discussing my books. I've been interviewed by our local newspaper.
