About My Library
I've had to move quite a bit over the past 25+ years, and my library has always taken a hit, as books are expensive to move. However, I also see my ownership of books as very fluid, and I've given away thousands over the years (I work in publishing, so I do mean thousands), to friends, libraries and various charities. I don't have a lot of books left, but the ones I have are the ones I cherish the most (for the most part - there are a few dogs, I admit). What I've cataloged is about 80% of what I currently live with (I'm behind on cataloging), and the rest (maybe 2-300) are in storage at my parents house. Those uncatalogued books are for the most part ancient/medieval history, cooking, children's/YA, costuming, and a few more acting books. My goal is to own 3000 books - if that number was good enough for Pepys, it's good enough for me.

My blog is on my website (see below), and is mirrored on Livejournal. I'm also on Flickr.

The above portrait is really me: it was created by the brilliant Nasubionna.
About Me
I'm a secretary by day, writer by night. I have a small number of stories, novelettes and novellas (horror, erotica and dark fantasy) that have been published in the past seven years (my full bibliography is on my website). My first collection of short fiction was published by Lethe Press in March 2011. Right now I'm writing a horror novel while doing research for another novel. I'm a graduate of Clarion '06.

PLEASE NOTE: Someone has been cataloging my short fiction on LibraryThing. This is not correct - I am the author of only ONE book (my collection of), but unfortunately I can't seem to stop this rather morally repulsive practice from taking place. Just understand that I'm not the one who's listing my individual stories as books/novels.
