I've
been an obsessive reader for as long as I can remember and started
writing at a very young age. One of the first books I read that
really stuck with me and made me want to write was Sweet, Savage
Love by Rosemary Rogers-which I read 8 times, starting when I was
around thirteen...probably too young for such a racy book :-) I now
love to read thrillers and paranormals. Some of my favorite
writers, although it would be impossible to list them all, are Dean
Koontz, Dennis Lehane, Jonathan Kellerman, Sharon Sala, Jordan Dane,
Michael Connelly, Lisa Gardner, Merline Lovelace, Gena Showalter,
Stephen King, Rachel Vincent, and many, many others.
I am fortunate enough to be a member of an amazing and wonderful
writing group, Oklahoma Romance Writers of America, and am a member of Heartland Romance Writers. I've also made
some great friends through The Wild Rose Press. I can't express how
much the support and encouragement of my fellow writers has meant to
me, particularly one special and very giving lady, best-selling
author, Sharon Sala. I also have an incredible network of family and
friends who have given me loving support and encouragement as I've
pursued my dream.
