Interests

  • General

    Hanging out with hubby. Travel. Books. Computer games. I'm hooked on Nancy Drew and absolutely loved The Longest Journey.
  • Music

    Love my MP3! Yep, you guessed, I'm from the original MTV generation, so give me the 80s and 90s, as well as current hits.
  • Movies

    I was pretty much raised in various aspects of the entertainment industry so I'm a movie and television fan. Enjoy fantasy, sci-fi, horror, musicals and comedies.
  • Television

    Right now I'm hooked on Glee, Family Guy, Warehouse 13, Supernatural, Bones, Medium and Ghost Whisperer.
  • Books

    Okay, you asked for it. Authors: Kelley Armstrong, Orson Scott Card, David Eddings, S. L. Farrell, Jasper Fforde, Maggie Furey, Neil Gaiman, Mary Gentle, Tara K. Harper, Kim Harrison, Elizabeth Haydon, Robert Jordan, Elizabeth Kerner, Caitlin R. Kiernan, Ursula LeGuin, Morgan Llewellyn, Anne McCaffrey, Andre Norton, Edgar Allan Poe, Philip Pullman, Alastair Reynolds, Anne Rice, Robert Charles Wilson and many others. I also read books on writing, publishing, science, Celtic cultures, American Indian cultures, and ancient civilizations, especially when I'm doing research for a book or story.

  • Heroes

    Helen Keller, NASA astronauts, scientists, teachers, writers, anyone else who changes the world for the better. And, of course, my hubby!

About me:

SynergEbook Author!

2009 Next Generation Indie Book Awards Finalist, 2008 Eric Hoffer Award Finalist, 2008 Indie Excellence Book Award Finalist, and 2007 Hollywood Book Festival Honorable Mention.

SynergEbooks just published my young adult fantasy Breach of Worlds and my adult fantasy Teadai Prophecies trilogy. I also signed multiple book contracts with them for 2010 and 2011 publications. Desert Magick: Superstitions, the first in my new adult paranormal fantasy series, is doing well and just snagged an award. I recently finished the second book in the series and am editing. Teens/tweens can also check out my award-winning novel The Mask of Tamirella.

After spending most of my life in the entertainment industry (you can catch me in Rags to Riches episodes, the educational film I Am Joe's Ear, and some very bad movies and cable shows that shall remain unnamed), I decided to make a career change and go back to school. And yes, I really was as a Disneyland performer, which for some reason seems to impress the heck out of several people. Ah, the stories I can tell.

I live in the Arizona desert with my very supportive husband, our insane parakeets, and numerous wild critters that frequent our neighborhood and am currently at work on another book. Oh, like you didn't see that one coming.

Who I'd like to meet:

Um, that should be "Whom I'd like to meet". Yeah, I was an English major. Writers, readers and watchers of speculative fiction. Other authors, publishers, editors. Anyone interested in the writing biz and/or the paranormal.
