edit data

A dreamer, a cynic, a klutz who loves cats, a homebody who roams, an artist, a writer. Strong coffee is the elixir that keeps the dragon at bay. My basement is full of them.

I started writing historical fiction when I was 14, but that slowly gravitated toward the fantastical. My epic fantasy series, The Falcons Saga, is available at Amazon.
