Introduction I'm a writer who's had a bit of luck. My first story, "The Dinosaur", came out in the October 2005 True Story Magazine. Other than that, the only thing I've written is my book, "Blood Tribe", which will be coming out later this year. I've been very lucky, I guess!
Interests Books, books, BOOKS! I love to read 'em and write 'em. Other than that, I'd have to say gardening, though my own garden looks like something out of "Gardening for Dummies." I'm too afraid to take on anything complicated! I love to travel--especially in Europe. I'd move there if I could afford it. France and England are breathtaking.
Favorite Movies I'm a huge fan of Pirate's of the Carribean. Go ahead and laugh, I know, it's so trendy. I can't help it! I like romances, both light & dark... Princess Bride, Interview with a Vampire--any vampire movie, really, as long as it's not too gory-- Ghost, What Dreams May Come... and I have a strange fascination with the movie "Twister." Oh, and Harry Potter--any of them.
Favorite Music Andrea Bocelli, Jerry Goldsmith, Danny Elfman, Stewart Copeland, Etta James, the Beatles, Enya, Jesus & Mary Chain, Depeche Mode, Concrete Blonde, U2... this could really be a long list. When do I stop?
Favorite Books I love Shakespeare; he's so great at plot twists and double entendres. Just about anything by Dean Koontz is great, but I have a soft spot for "Hideaway." Stephen King's "The Shining" is, as far as I'm concerned, the best horror book in print. And I love the Harry Potter books. I'm really looking forward to seeing how she wraps the series up!
