Long Story Short
My love affair with writing began when I was about twelve years old. I dove headfirst into the fantasy genre by tackling JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, which filled me with dreams of distant places, heroic quests, and let's face it, seriously cool critters. I was a voracious reader and there didn't seem to be enough stories in the world to satisfy me, so began to create my own.
I've been writing ever since, but The Huntress was the first novel I offered to publishers. I was lucky to find an e-publisher who was committed to working with the author every step of the way, and I was excited to be part of the growing e-book market. Sadly, that publisher dissolved, but I continued on as an independent author, before being accepted as an author with The Wild Rose Press.
Now I have several books and short stories e-published, but those of us who write for the sheer joy of it are never done. New stories and exciting characters constantly challenge me, clamoring to be written. I am, of course, up to the challenge. But the real question is, are you ready for them, Adventurous Reader?
