About me: I have three published novels: TRUE BLUE FOREVER, DIFFERENT ROADS and SYMMETRY. I'm currently pitching my 4th novel (PENANCE) to agents and writing my 5th--SHADES OF BLUE.
My favorite place to read is: Pretty much anywhere, but I'd have to pick one of the chairs facing the big windows at my local library, especially when it's raining.
I can't live without: My husband! Also books, music, Cheez-Its, coffee.
If I could be any literary character, I would be: Jo March! I've read LITTLE WOMEN 8 times and have loved Jo since I first met her when I was in the 4th grade!
Favorite authors: Stephen King, Tabitha King, Barbara Kingsolver, John Grisham, Joshilyn Jackson, Laurie Halse Anderson, Jeff Lindsay, Suzanne Collins and Rick Bragg.

Hi. :) Can we swap? I would appreciate if you read my 3 min piece "Vengeance is Never Sweet". I'll read anything of yours in return, just let me know on my wall. Thanks!

Hey, mind doing me a HUGE favor? You guessed it. Please, please, PLEASE, take a look at my short story The Hopeful Romantic and maybe heart it for a swap if you think it deserves it? I know I sound pathetic but I AM desperate and these heart-based contests are unfair. I also understand if you don't do swaps, sorry to bother you and sorry if you've seen this before. Please kindly consider this humble request and thank you in advance if you do decide to lend a hand, I really appreciate it! Merry Winter! =)
