Bio

Who am I? That’s a good question. It’s something I’m still seeking to answer. In 8 words: I’m a woman, a wife and a writer.

You think you need to know more? I’m 38 (I know it’s hard for me to believe too). I’ve been married to my tall dark and handsome knight for thirteen years. Actually, he’s not a knight. He’s a teacher. But a tall dark handsome knight sounds so much better than a tall dark handsome teacher. Don’t you think?

We have been situated in Eastern Ontario for the last thirteen years (yep, right after we married we moved). Before that we lived in Northern Ontario. No not way up North, but northernly enough to make these Easterners shiver. We are quite happy here. The weather is warmer, winter is shorter, and summer is longer. It is a bit damper than we are use to but hey, everything can’t be perfect.

suzieOur home is shared with a fourtee year old American Tabby named Suzie (pictured on this page), a nine year old German Shepherd (pictured on this page) named Shelby, and a rescued feral cat named JD (John Doe). And I should not forget the school of fish.

I have written for a long as I can remember. I started out with poetry, I’m not sure why as I never had much exposure to it growing up. Most of what I wrote was depressing and I seemed to really like the word “despair”. In high school it was short stories. Regretfully, I only have one in my possession. I wish someone had encouraged me to continue on that path. There were periods of my life where I wrote very little. About six years ago I left my day job (at the time I was a Manager of a women’s clothing store) to work from home; further exploring my creative abilities to see where they would take me. It has been an interesting and totally surprising ride.shelby

I need to work harder. Everyday is a challenge against procrastination and distraction. It’s so easy to do something else. Like organize the closets (if only I could channel some of that into doing dirty dishes).

If you made it this far, I’m impressed. Please check out the rest of my site.
