About meMy mother claims I've had a book in my hand since I was 2 and read, stacked and re-stacked my Golden Books until they fell apart. I am definately a bookaholic!

A high-school history teacher in my earlier life, I live in suburban Philadelphia with my husband and 2 sons and am a publishing consultant and editor for the past 20 years.

About my libraryEclectic but heavy on historical fiction and non-fiction.
