About me

Gender Female
Occupation Freelance Writer
Location Poconos, PA, United States
Introduction I am older than I'd like to be, but look younger than I am, so that is always good. I have an awesome 7 year old son who believes the universe revolved around him because in our house, it really does. I have four cats, three dogs, and one parrot. The fish died. I just realized that it's been years since I updated this intro. The fish has been dead for ages, and sadly, so is one of the cats. I've never been a big fan of the "who am I" things because, really, at 37 years old, I can hardly be defined in under 1200 characters! Want the short version anyway? I'm a blogger, freelance writer, mom to the aforementioned awesome kid, and girlfriend to an amazing guy who ensures I don't die of starvation while I'm working by feeding me breakfast every day he's here. Life doesn't get much better than that!
Interests I am a book and knowledge junkie. I rock at Trivial Pursuit but suck at Monopoly and pretty much every other game. When I'm not spending 12 hours a day writing online, I love playing video games with my son or hanging out with my awesome boyfriend.
Favorite Movies There are literally millions of movies in existence, how on earth can anyone really choose their favorites? It would be easier to tell you what I don't like!
Favorite Music Dropkick Murphys, NOFX, Guttermouth, Vandals, Bouncing Souls, Suicide Machines, and so on. Basically, I'm a punk rock girl at heart.
Favorite Books Alice in Wonderland is my all-time favorite book. Other than that, it varies depending on my mood. I read everything, some favorites are: James Rollins, Neil Gaiman, Jasper Fforde; plague fiction (not medical fiction, it has to have some sort of epidemic in it); Abby Cooper: Psychic Eye mysteries. I rarely read Oprah Book Club books.
