I have an ethnic mix of Polish, English, and Scottish, which can be volatile at times - a little Celt goes a long way! An unending thirst for knowledge has kept my nose in books from an early age. I started as a fine arts major in college, but along the way also learned fencing, dressage, scuba diving, and fiddle playing. I also studied astronomy, oceanography, microbiology, anatomy, small engine repair - a hopeless mishmash of interests! But . . . horses and heroism. Crashing waves and magical forests. A full moon and true love, the freedom of the wind and the simple truth of a water-tumbled stone . . . these are the kinds of things that have haunted my inner being for as long as I can remember. I ultimately discovered that for me, writing stories was the one way I could incorporate into a united effort the eclectic ideas that fascinate me. With that effort I hope to strike some chord of harmony or of recognition that readers may find of value.
