Hi! I'm a native New Yorker, now
living in Central FL. I read
voraciously. It's a rare occasion to
find me without a book in my hands, my
purse, my car...wherever I am.
My favorite reading material would be
inspirational fiction, followed by
romance--if I can combine these two,
I'm in heaven!--then women's fiction,
young adult and biographies. Truth be
told, though, I'll read almost
anything. (Except erotica. Personal
preference. No knock on the genre.)
I'm an IT professional, a
pastor's wife, and mother of three
boys. I'm also a short story author
and aspiring novelist. I need to
escape life's mayhem to keep my
sanity. I choose to do so through
books.
