emptypage: Before anything, I'm a mom to three fur babies, an Australian Shepherd, a Fox Terrier, and a Rat Terrier.

After that, I write. I have written all my life. I've made a bit of money at it (no complaints, but I certainly can't quit my day job) and been in touch with the sheer joy of creating. I don't breathe if I don't write.

I'm a bit unwell, and that has affected every part of my life, especially my writing. Some days, my mojo just isn't available. Some days I write out of pure anger or sadness or loss. At least on the days I eke something out I don't feel like a total loser.

I'm passionate. I have an immensely huge mouth that keeps me in hot water, but I wouldn't trade it. I went through eons of therapy to find my voice and I'm not giving it back now, for friends or money.

I'm eager to learn more here--about all of you and about myself.

Peace.
