That's what one of my elementary teachers wrote on my report card. I'm an adult now and I haven't changed a bit.

In 2000, I started writing my first book, Hocus Pocus, and within seven months it was completed. My second book, Now You See It . . . , a year later. Naïve daydreamer that I am, I thought this is it, I'm going to get published. Optimistic, I entered my first book in a contest and placed last in the paranormal category.

So what did I do? I joined RWA, my local chapter, took writing courses, on-line workshops, talked to other writers and joined a critique group. By 2004, I was finally placing second and third in contests.

Now, everyone can read my books and share in my daydreams and understand why I usually walk around with a grin on my face.

Happy reading.
