Growing up in the Pacific Northwest meant many rainy days spent on indoor activities and from a young age one of my favorites has been creative writing. I was penning monster romance stories in high school between classes before I even realized it was a genre and still have many of those original drafts. (Which will never, ever see the light of day again because they are truly cringe worthy!)It was only recently that my writing grew from a personal hobby into a dream of publishing. When I'm not obsessing over my writing, I can be found wandering through the woods with my daughter and husband, taking pictures of pretty leaves, and throwing sticks for my little dog, Dash.
