I write suspenseful stories. My absolute favorite genre is microfiction/flash fiction, where short stories are incredibly short. By day I am in the business world, where succinctness is highly valued, as most managers do not have time to read more than a brief paragraph. Most of my story ideas come from dreams. My favorite book is Stephen King's The Stand. When I am not working, writing or reading, which is most of the time, I like cooking things that are different, like making cheese or yogurt, or baking bread. I am currently on the hunt for the perfect shortbread cookie recipe.
