Six Interesting Things About Me

Six Interesting Things About Me

1. I was a dancer and ran my own dance studio for several years. I taught tap, jazz, ballet basics, classical pointe, and even gave swing lessons to my husband’s fraternity brothers.

2. I was a reporter, and for over ten years I wrote erotic fiction under a pseudonym. I attended many Alternative Living and BDSM community conventions during that time. I no longer write in that genre.

3. I love art, photography, and crafts. I have painted mostly in oils, focusing on birds, animals, and a few landscapes. My camera of choice is a Nikon D90. I also crochet, weave, bead, throw pottery, and sculpt. I sketch often and always keep a sketchpad nearby.

4. I broke my back when I was ten years old, and today I live with severe arthritis in my spine that causes chronic nerve pain. My doctors manage it through treatments that numb or ablate the nerves in the worst areas.

5. I have been a witness at three murder scenes. At the first, three people were killed. At the second, two people were killed. At the third, one person was killed. I know that is hard to believe, but it is absolutely true.

6. My grandfather had a farm, and I worked driving a tractor during tobacco season. I was fourteen, and even without a license I drove a large four door truck pulling a horse trailer, usually with two show horses, to get to quarter-horse competitions when my uncle was too drunk to drive. I rode western saddle.
