  <about><![CDATA[I was born in the northern midwest to a missionary pastor and his wife.  As the oldest of four, I learned to be mature and responsible at an early age.  That, however, did not prevent me from having constant flights of fancy.  In my early teens, those flights of fancy began to make it to the page.  I have always loved reading and constantly had my nose in a book growing up (fuel for those fanciful flights).  It seemed only natural to start putting my adventures into words to share.

I love to read, discuss, and listen to comments on a wide variety of topics, both fiction and non-fiction.  I look forward to interacting with others on this site.  :)]]></about>    <gender>female</gender>
