I have been in love with reading and the formation of words to evoke a feeling, a response, for as long as I can remember. I love rainy days and warm, starry nights. I am a poet first, author second, and then a writer. A poet writes because she has to, an author writes because she loves to, a writer writes because she can. I love to find old books and new coffee shops and spend time people watching. You can find your best characters that way.
