Not only is this the first entry of my first blog, it's my first attempt at a bio.

I'm a writer complete with the ego and the doubts, the knowledge and the ignorance, the peace and the demons that work together to enrich the life of any writer.

The first time I saw the word that aptly describes much of my education, was in a short bio of Mark Twain: I'm an autodidact. Once my budget moves into a healthier stage of recovery, I'd like to take a few classes; that day isn't this day.

My home is in Lansdale, Pennsylvania about 30 or so miles northwest of Philadelphia. Living with me and my boyfriend, Brent, are Duke (Shep mix), Alice (Calico) and Edgar (grey fish).

Do I have hobbies or obsessions? No matter, they're varied enough to keep me happy. Actually, I like or have an interest in just about everything. The main things that have no room in my life are people who whine, reality shows and cooked carrots.
