Real Name: Debbi Higginbotham
About My Library: My favorite genre is historical fiction, particularly in Scotland, Ireland, Wales or England. I also like epic fantasy and sometimes science fiction. I read lots of non-fiction as well.
About Me: I am a retired civil engineer who, for the last 20 years of my career, worked for a software company that created civil engineering software, among others. I have lots of hobbies and interests -- cross stitch, running, genealogy, computers, and reading, of course!
