I’m one of those people with an evenly balanced right and left brain.  I have a BA in English, but I just finished my final year as a high school math teacher.  Yes, I said math teacher.  I am continuing to teach math at the college level (at least most of the college students want to be in class).

I love to cook, both gourmet and clean, and was a pastry chef in a former life

I am a practicing Wiccan with a smidge of Buddhist tossed in.  I practice and teach Yoga.

I love everything Japanese and hope to take an extended trip there in the next few years.  My house is done in Japanese style and every year along with the Forth of July, we celebrate the Japanese summer festival. 

I am also an avid Renaissance Faire player and belong to a guild, the Brotherhood of the Bottle.  I started writing fiction because of adventures that occurred at Renn Faire.

I currently work in Portland, OR and visit my husband Ross and our five cats, Oto, Koto, Momo, Kuze, and Newton who live on our retirement ranchette (15 acres) outside of Kingman, AZ (about two hours south of Las Vegas).
