Words, of any kind. Odd bits of information, scraps of eccentricity, books with very long titles, love stories, action stories -- you name it, I'll read it. Also fascinated with: swords, bows, pirates, nomads, central asia, ufos, myths, loch ness, bigfoot, poodles, and more.

I'm an attorney who has lived and worked throughout Asia. I hail from both coasts, but currently reside in the Midwest, where I write full-time. I sold my first novel when I was 26, and never looked back. My books include the New York Times bestselling Dirk & Steele series -- about a detective agency made up of psychics, shape-shifters, and other magical beings who try to help others while keeping their identities secret -- and my forthcoming Hunter Kiss urban fantasies from Ace Books, about a woman covered in living tattoos.
