About me~

I’m an author of fantasy romance. The magic of art and nature spark life into my writing. My creativity also spills into watercolor painting and drawing. After a move from Toledo to Tampa in 2008, I’m happily transforming into a Floridian, in love with the outdoors. Crazy about cycling, I usually pass the 1,000 mile mark yearly. I recently purchased a used kayak—my favorite new toy! We live on a large saltwater lagoon and taking it out for an hour or more is a real treat. I’ve been a yoga enthusiast for over a decade and that spiritual quest helps me explore the mystical side of fantasy. I always exercise as part of my daily routine. It clears my mind, so my writing time is considerably more focused and effective. Also, it takes me on journeys inside my mind or outside in nature that bring me an endless supply of new writing ideas. I never have enough days spent at the beach, usually scribbling away at stories with toes wiggling in the sand. Every day at the beach is magical!

I'm a member of: Romance Writers of America Fantasy, Futuristic & Paranormal chapter; Infinite Worlds of Fantasy; Independent Authors Network; Florida Writers Association.
