Author has written 25 stories for Romance, Family, War, General, Life, Politics, Love, School, and General.

I never thought I'd end up in Mississippi after moving once every two years my entire life. But I've learned to love it, the same way you learn to love a perverted uncle or a tailless cat.

My name is Jules. I'm seventeen years old. I've never been in love.

My favorite book is White Oleander by Janet Fitch. My favorite band, Neutral Milk Hotel. My favorite poet, Sharon Olds.

Let's see.

Took down some of my better work for publishing reasons. We'll see what happens.

youngARTS week was pretty cool - the writers were fantastic, though I didn't learn much. I got a silver award, so I get to go to New York for another week of master classes. :)

"Goodnight Saigon" won Best Challenge Response down at the SKoW Awards, and Bekkia's "Tell me a Story" contest down at DeviantART.

If you see Rachelle, tell her I'm looking for her and would like to continue "The Romancing of Tuesday Dennings." My solo-novel with Tuesday just didn't work.

And...feel free to PM or email me for whatever reason. I'm chatty. :)
