I am the mother of seven children (five of which I raised) and the proud grandmother of six grandsons and six granddaughters. I have a beautiful Australian Shepherd named Bella and two ornery cats, Edward and Lil Bit. I am an avid book worm and cinephile, the less known author, musician or film, the better. I have just recently began attending film festivals so that I can get my love of indie films fulfilled. I am pretty low maintenance and will tell it like it is. If you have a question for me please feel free to ask. My day job is that of a psychologist which I love doing but my dream is to write professionally. Although I have written in the academic field, both in journals and a published book, I would like to write fiction. I got my feet wet in the fan fiction world, yes, that's right, fan fiction which I can proudly say allowed me to find my creative side once again. I will likely publish a couple of my previously posted fan fiction stories but they will be toned down considerably. My style will be mostly psychological suspense with a hint of the supernatural but I will also write some young adult novels (my daughter wants to write with me, how can I say no to that?) and a few adult romance novels. That should keep me busy for awhile.
