About me

Location	Gilbert, Arizona, United States
Introduction	I am a single mother (by choice!) of 5 wonderful children. An aspiring author since grade school, I recently completed the 1st book in my YA paranormal series about fallen angels and other spooky stuff. I've written 8 other novels, some short stories, started a couple screenplays and wrote some mediocre poetry.
Interests	My Awesome Kids, Writing, Reading, Music
Favorite movies	Apocalypse Now (but Conrad does it better), anything Tarantino, most stuff Lion’s Gate, Donnie Darko (you got me!), The Exorcist (I’m always in need of a young priest and an old priest), all things Matrix --ditto Lord of the Rings, Evil Dead and follow ups with Bruce Campbell (incld. Bubba of course), The Amityville Horror (for showing us our first gateway to hell which can be found in the common everyday household basement - who knew?), Rosemary’s Baby (for letting us know the devil can “do it” too), Jaws (for being so memorably disturbing that I am still afraid to swim in the ocean), Zombie’s efforts are appreciated (but mostly I think I’m just in love with Bill Moseley).
Favorite music	Modest Mouse, Dave Matthews, 30 Seconds to Mars (why can‘t all guys wear eyeliner?!), Godsmack, Beastie Boys (esp. License to Ill), 3 Doors Down, System of a Down, Dead Can Dance, Disturbed, Metallica, Audioslave, Rage Against the Machine, Incubus, Brand New, Bright Eyes, Counting Crows, Death Cab for Cutie, Beck, and so many more.
Favorite books	Anne Rice’s vampires, Stephen King’s monsters in the closet/sewers, Flannary O’Connor and her stories about the utter grotesqueness of organized religion -- here here, Koontz (my 1st novel was Watchers too - I tossed it when someone gave me the book and suggested I read it before completing mine - I forgave him, sort of…), Ketchum for the gore-in-print (thanks for being so damn yucky!), Campbell and can’t forget the classics that taught us all how to do it and do it right, incld. but not limited to the Josephs -- Conrad and Heller, Dickens and saving the best for last, Hitchcock and Poe.
