Avid reader, writer, and nature enthusiast. I write somewhere in the fantasy genre: little bit of urban, little bit of high, little bit of supernatural. The Justified series is at the forefront of my projects, but I am reworking a previously released (and currently unavailable for purchase) book too! After finally finding my voice as a writer, it's almost painful for me to read what I sounded like way back when. Without the rework I wouldn't be able to finish out Harley's story (as I've been told I'm required to do). I worked in freelance for a while before I turned my attention to my own projects. Freelancing has given me a lot of strange information that makes me pretty decent at trivia.
I have a daughter, Naomi. She is a lot like me in almost every way. It's a blessing and a curse. I get to relive my high school days, and it's just as fun as it was the first time around. She's a talented artist, and a lover of all things horror. I've dubbed her room the murder cave. If I wasn't afraid of clowns, I'd think it was cool.
We currently live in Flint, MI. Copious amounts of coffee and having my office on my porch (well, from April-ish to October-ish anyway) is what keeps me sane. Fall is by far the best season, and this is a hill I will die on.
I wear flip flops and t-shirts in the winter, and there is nothing better than sitting by a fire (except maybe watching and listening to a thunderstorm). I am positive all ailments can be cured with some herbal tea and honey (I'm only half serious, talk to your doctor... I never thought I'd need to add this disclaimer, but here we are).
Sundays, Monday nights, and Thursday nights are for football and long conversations about football with my sister. Yes, I'm a Lion fan. Yes, I tell myself it will be different this year only to suffer horrible disappointment. Yes, it's tragic.
