What can I say about myself? Hmm... Well, I love to meet new people, and I'm an avid reader. I'm not a genre snob, so my bookshelf holds something from almost every genre and subset of fiction and nonfiction, including: science fiction, fantasy, so-called children's literature, classics, poetry, romance, historical women's fiction, comedy, ad nausem et infinitum.

I'm a former editor, a lifelong workaholic, and have an unnatural fear of velvet and garden statues. Also, I enjoy a special kinship with wildlife that basically consists of them attacking and me running away.
