Writer by night and Criminal Forensics Studies graduate student by day. Thus, in need of caffeine! * * * * * * * * * *My PW page can be viwed here:

A STUDY IN FEAR * * * * * * * * * * When a criminal profiler investigates a serial killer's threats against her former lover, she risks revealing her violent past as a war crimes survivor. * * * * * * * * * * * * *
I'm writing a psychological suspense thriller and have published noir and hard-boiled short fiction. As if that didn't keep me hopping, I'm also a graduate student currently writing a thesis on the neuro-biological basis of criminal behavior and in December 2008 I'll earn a master's degree in Criminal Forensics Studies: Behavioral Analysis. My previous employment includes working at the medical examiner’s office where my primary responsibility was to cook the corpse. In April 2008, my short story PENNIES FROM HEAVEN appeared in "Out of the Gutter Magazine." In 2007, SAFE IN THE HOUSE appeared in Thug Works * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

BOOK REVIEW UPDATE: Since I'm in graduate school the time I have for extra curricular reading is limited. I can hopefully manage 1-2 reviews a month. PLEASE do not send me a message asking me to review your book. The best way to get my attention is to "friend me"; I will check out your book - if it interests me AND I have time to read it relatively soon (as opposed to long after your next book comes out), I will. There are dozens of books I’d like to read and review each month, but I'm afraid my schedule right now won’t allow it.* * * * * * * * * *
