About Me

To become a good writer, you must read good books.

Bio

I taught high school English for ten years and have an MA in English and Comparative Literature from UCI. I also have graduate coursework in Library and Information Science, including classes in YA lit and reference. I am an information and research fiend. My thesis was Native American writer John Rollin Ridge and his novel "Joaquin Murieta" and covered California History during the Gold Rush as well as the Cherokee relocation.

Interests

Besides reading and listening to all types of books, i enjoy: games of skill and chance, football, my family, and my Jeep.
