I think most of us would like to be the makers of our own world.  To have control over who lives, who dies, who receives blessings in their lives, and who gets what they deserve from Karma.  There are a few of us who actually get to experience that kind of power and we are called author, writer, story teller.  

When driving to work one day, my inner world began to form.  Much like the universe, it started with a bang.  A violent scene that played in my mind’s eye as I drove.  A scene where two vampires were locked in a heated battle.  The winner’s reward?  The love of his long life.  

My world grew from that one scene into an entire series.  I found myself wanting to share the world I created with others, hoping they would enjoy my inhabitants as much as I did, so I put fingers to the keyboard and started typing.  It took me several years to teach myself the craft and finish my first manuscript.  I learned how to write by reading what others had written.  Read. Write. Read. Write.  Research. Write.  So goes my life and I love it.  

In the real world, my supportive husband and I live in Florida and are the proud parents of one child, a son.  While I am hoping to one day be able to fulfill my dream of writing full time, I currently juggle my writing with my professional commitment to the local school district.  But whether I am paid for it or not, either way I love writing and will continue to do it as long as my inner universe keeps expanding.
