About My Library
My new library is under construction. It just got a fresh coat of paint and is awaiting finish work. My poor books are currently crammed and trapped inside horrid cardboard boxes and stacked any place I can find space. They can't wait to be put on shelves in alphabetical order and allowed to breath again.
About Me
Book Review Blog:
Bitsy Bling Books
http://bitsybling.blogspot.com
Writing is my passion, a compulsion and exploration of self and humanity. I've studied numerous styles of writing, eras of history and social justice. I graduated with honors with a degree in English Literature with an emphasis on creative writing and a minor in Criminology from the University of Washington. My educational pursuits included rigorous research of historical eras, critique, analysis and creative writing styles. My background in criminology provides a unique advantage and has aided me in creating believable psychological states for my characters. I believe understanding human nature is vital to convincing an audience. My mentor Allison is a talented poet and teacher in Portland Oregon.

"A rose is a rose, unless you make it something different, but make it believable."
