A writer with delusions of granduer, looking for a cure, and a prince who's at least a little bit charming.
Born in MT and migrating from state to state as a child, stuck with me and formed my love of travel and neurotic need to move to new places. In writing I can make these places even more mine. Spinning them into my own creations, through my unique lens. That is my life today. Wanting to learn, to travel, to write, to have a family, and to find ways to help others. A movie changed me when I was 17. I identified so strongly with the hero who had given his life, that I had to look deep inside and ask if I had that strength within myself. At the time I didn't. I only had fear, weakness, guilt, and wanting to be more. I cried for hours wanting to be that person of strength, and on a subconscious level a journey began...a journey to free myself of fears and outside expectations. My dream is that I can write something beautiful that will send just one person on an inward journey towards thier own future self.
