The Story
I am a writer and young adult (YA) author who loves to write books!
My favorite stories are ones that make me laugh and make me cry. I love when I can get so engrossed in a story that I cannot put it down. I like fast moving, funny books and stories with twists and turns and quirky characters who make me feel something and forget everything else.
I have wanted to be a writer ever since I can remember. Growing up I liked reading books that were a combination of love story, friendship issues, and coming of age themes. I like when reading is easy and effortless — I always picture the books I write (or read) being a movie. To this day, I think books should come with a soundtrack. As you read each chapter a different song begins — this sounds so cool and is totally realistic!
After years of going through the agent and publisher mazes (including having a literary agent), I self-published my first novel, The Perfect Pull. I've also published/write a few ghostwriten pieces and a book under a pen name. More novels — I hope! — are to come...
