I've been telling stories for years and was quite a hit with my nieces especially in their younger years. It's just in the last 15 years or so that I have begun getting serious about my writing. My genre of choice is mystery, as anyone who has read my work can tell. But I love to add a spritz of humor and horror every now and again. I had a cat mystery published online and made my first sale of 10 dollars. I continue to be a cat lover but can no longer own one due to allergies on the part of both my husband and myself. I read voraciously, sew and craft with an emphasis on re-purposing.
