Ever since I can remember, I have had a fierce passion for reading and writing stories. My longstanding goal in life is to write a historical novel, a memoir, and/or an essay collection of my own. Another passion of mine is history, particularly that of England’s Tudor dynasty. I’m the proud aunt of a brilliant and precocious four-year-old girl and, and I’m also the exasperated but smitten mom of a hopelessly spoiled chihuahua and a perpetually offended domestic shorthair.
