| Introduction | Since I can remember, I’ve had entire worlds of characters going on adventures in my head while I've tended to the boring tasks of real life. People would say I had fallen into the “Mad-zone” when I became unresponsive, something teachers in school never really cared for. It didn’t take me long to realize that if I wrote these adventures down, I could keep coming back to them again and again, adding to them, changing things. I was first published at age seven in the Worcester Sunday Telegram, earning one whole dollar. Since then I've been writing non-stop, taking readers a bit left of the ordinary. My stories have appeared in Circle Magazine, The Wheel, and Prick of the Spindle, and have also received honorable mentions and semi-finalist standings in contests. |

You've been invited to a fancy ball but the only thing you have to wear is an orange wooly jumper. What shoes do you wear?
My bunny slippers, of course!
