At a very young age, I was exposed to reading, and I was inspired.  After college I made my way into the workforce, and life found a way to pull me from written creativity.  Despite days turning into years, I never let go of my early passion. 

It wasn’t a single day or occurrence that caused a change in me.  As a person that has always strived to improve myself, I found a point in life that I was no longer burdened by study…so I picked up the pen.  The stories flooded out of me.  It felt natural.  Then the world came to a halt as quarantine set in across the globe.  With everything in neutral, writing flourished.  That is when I completed Perrywinkle, my first novel.  The fire was alit again!

I am a huge fan of modern novels but have a soft spot for classics.  My all-time favorite read is Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley.  If you like that, check out The Last Man, another Shelley work.  I still feel strange I finished that story during in 2021.
