Author has written 2 stories for Romance.

I have a lot of books, a caustic sense of humor, no filter between my brain and mouth, questionable taste in men, mild insomnia, slight dyslexia with numbers, many unflattering but mostly truthful nicknames, a mouth like a sailor, and a distinct lack of give-a-damn. I'm complicated, paradoxical, picky, sarcastic, easily annoyed, loud, bitchy, and an all-around acquired taste. Asking won't get you much of anywhere, but if you want to know more about me, take a look at any one of my female leads- they're all manifestations of my personality, in one way or another.

heroes:

Tom Robbins, Bret Easton Ellis, Tennessee Williams, Kurt Vonnegut, e.e. cummings, Jane Austen, Douglas Adams, David Sedaris, and anyone who's written a book with a good first line.

stories:

The Boys: Chapter one is up! Pictures coming...next time I have some free time on my hands.

Of Money and Mouths: Chapter seventeen is up!

Regan, White, and the Seven Deadly Sins: Completed on 3/21/07. ATTENTION: Removed due to multiple accounts of plagiarism. Sorry, guys. I can't keep something of mine out there if it's just going to be stolen.
