Biography

I have enjoyed writing for pleasure since a number of years ago in high school. It wasn't until I heard about Smashwords that I realized an independent author finally had an opportunity to fulfill a dream and become a published author. I had decided a long time ago that if I ever had the chance to write professionally, I would ask my aunt for permission to write about her fascinating career in the army as a rape counselor. She had told me previously the entire story of her adventures so I was already armed with a fascinating story to share with readers.

It has been a great pleasure writing for Smashwords, and I wish to thank them for providing these opportunities for us hopeful writers to launch a career as a novelist.

P.S. I have been asked many times how I am able to write the letter "i" with an accent mark above it as in my first name. All you have to do is hold down the "Alt" key and with the number lock on your number pad, type in "161."
