About Me:

I am a full time graduate student in a Masters in Teaching program. I am also a production potter working in high fire ceramics. As an undergrad, I was a double major in Art and English Literature - with an emphasis in Victorian Lit. Charles Dickens and George Eliot are my heroes, followed by the Bronte sisters and Jane Austen; and I would like to add an additional shout out to Robin McKinley, because she was the first author who made writing about alternative universes an option for me.

I write in my free time, when I have it.

The Song That Started It All:

The Man in the Long Black Coat, written by Bob Dylan, sung by Mark Lanegan

The Poets:

John Keats ~ La Belle Dame Sans Merci

Sir Walter Scott ~ Marmion

The Lazy Yet Discerning Ficster Blog:

I owe these kind folks more than I can say. They have been kind enough to recommend my story far and wide over the internet, and they do an extraordinary job doing the same for a great number of other fine authors. Check them out, and send them my love. :)
