About me
I have always loved telling stories. It started when I was growing up as an only child with a rich inner life. I often imagined what it would be like to run away and live in the forest or build a home in a boxcar. The floor in my childhood bedroom still squeaks where I used to walk as I came up with my tales.
I went to school for Communication with the hopes of finding a career that would allow me to write and move out of my parent's house. In addition to all my required courses, I took every single creative writing class offered by my college. And while my writing and voice started to take shape, there's always been a part of me that's still that lonely kid, walking in circles in her room.
After college, I landed a rare writing job in a blue-collar industry. The fact that I'm willing to spend my whole day writing, and then go home and write for myself is either a sign of true passion or pathological need. Like most things, it's probably a bit of both.
