ABOUT THE AUTHOR: From street urchin to author and indie publisher with many stops in between, life has been an interesting journey. Two personal traits carry me through the good times and the dark times: an insatiable hunger for knowledge that molded me into an avid reader at a very young age, and a driving need to create in a variety of mediums.

My rules of life are simple:

1. Never put off what is important to you. Go after it. Nurture it.

2. Be true to yourself. Stand up for what you believe in.

3. Listen to your gut. Intuition is a sadly neglected sense.

These rules come from a firm belief that we all have the power to choose what and who we want to be. Live every day as if it will be your last, for all we know, it could be.

One thing I can promise my readers–every single one of my books has a happy ending. There are too many things in life that make us hurt and I see no reason to write or read a book that will add to them.

I write in several genres because I love to read in multiple genres and it keeps me from becoming bored. I’ll do my best to make sure each book is clearly identified so if you love mystery but hate romance you won’t grab one by mistake. I currently write in YA mystery, YA Post-Apocalyptic, Science Fiction, Steampunk Mystery, and Romance.

If you are having trouble finding what you want please let me know. Multiple pen names have been suggested to me but I would prefer to keep my books under one name. We’ll see how that goes.

Finally, if you would like to know when a new book is coming out in your favorite series sign up for the series’ mailing list. There is a form on the individual series pages. I promise not to share your email address and I will never spam you. While it is a popular practice among authors these days to “swap” mailing lists I do not participate in that practice. If you sign on to my mailing list you will only receive emails from me. (And not many. Sending emails is not something I do unless I have a good reason.)
