About the Author:
I was born, in Louisville, Kentucky, and currently live in Bowling Green. I was married in 2007 for the first time at the tender age of 50. I took creative writing in high school, and found I enjoyed it. Some authors have a favorite author whose work inspired them. My inspiration was Edgar Rice Burroughs, the creator of Tarzan; however it was his Martian series that I am most find of.
As I was rewriting my first novel, High Seas, to its current form, I’m surprised I was able to finished it. My husband kept continually asking me, “Are you done yet?”
I retired from twenty-years of teaching Taekwon-do, in which I hold a fourth degree black belt. I dabbled in fencing for a short while. Currently, I attend Mid-Continent University and am working on my Bachelors Degree.
