Let me tell you a little bit about myself:  I've been an avid reader ever since that first Nancy
Drew book I picked up years ago . . . or was it all those Wonder Woman comic books?
Since then, I've surrounded myself with books, enjoying contemporary and historical romances, mysteries and once in awhile I dip into paranormals.

I've led a checkered past, I must admit.  I dropped out of college, worked in various businesses until I married my high school sweetheart (of course, Mr. Tall, Dark and Handsome!), raised my children, went back to college part-time and finished my Bachelor's degree, then continued (slowly) to earn graduate degrees in English and in Library Science.

Yes, libraries were and still are my happy place, and I thrive on helping patrons.  After years of running public libraries, I decided to try my hand at writing a novel -- and the rest is history.  I published my first romance as an indie author in 2016 and haven't looked back.

What do I do to relax (aside from reading)?   I maintain a fairly large perennial garden -- roses are my favorite; weeding is not --  as well as quilting, and I'm not going to mention how large my fabric stash is, which is harder to maintain than the garden!
