It was in Rice's novels that the idea of urban fantasy really bloomed for me and it was about that time that my grandmother was letting me read her Harlequin Historical novels. (Okay, actually she was slipping them to me when my mother wasn't looking, but let's not get picky.)
The combination of love stories and darker fantasy stuck with me and it's now not only what I gravitate towards to read on my off time (Kelly Armstrong, Laurell K Hamilton, Kim Harrison), but has become the style I love to write in.
Besides writing, I love to spend time with my family and animals, horseback ride, garden and hike with my husband.
Not to mention that at the moment I'm still working my day job as a farrier. :)
Thanks go to my fabulous friends and family, clients and Tweeps who, without, I would not have made it this far in my journey.
When it comes to writing there is only one creed to live by in my books. (Pun intended) As a very wise, small, green man once said,
"Do or do not, there is no try."
