Introduction	I am a high strung, crazy energetic and passionate about life person! I have had my nose stuck in a book since as far back as I can remember. My grandmother has Alzheimer's yet never forgets to remind me of this fact. I love the worlds of the character's lives I enter and how their story can create turmoil within me to the point that I will stay up until 3am to finish what their end actually is. The satisfaction I get from closing a book and those few moments where there is just silence and reflection from what I just witnessed through the writer's eyes; it's magic. I am a writer myself and hope to one day leave people feeling that exact same way after closing one of my hopeful books. I have a beautifil 6-year-old son....and he is learning to read this year in kindergarten. He loves it....and it makes me incredibly happy to know that.
Favorite Movies	Shawshank Redemption, Clueless, Mystic River, Enchanted, Chicago.....and the list goes on and on

Favorite Books	All time favorite: Rebecca. This list could go on and on as well....but Gregory Maguire and Joyce Carol Oates are two of my favorite authors. I will pretty much read anything they write.
