Hello! I've been lurking for a week or so now and decided it was time to introduce myself.
I've known I wanted to be a writer since I presented my first grade teacher with what I considered to be a scintillating book report on The Fantastic Mr. Fox. Approximately 852 years later, I'm taking a break from a career in communications to pursue creative writing.
I've written two novels, a load of short stories, poems, and essays, but have only started thinking about trying to get published in about the last six months. Wow, do I have a lot to learn.
Right now I'm focused on writing middle grade because I have two children at that age, so it feels authentic to me. And I love children's books, both the ones I read as a child and the new ones I'm discovering now.
Looking forward to participating here...
