Mamaverdhide bio
 Author has written 7 stories for Rookie Blue. My name is Lisa. I am a 45 year old mother of 5 and I am married 21 years to my awesome husband. Trust me, I have many stories from my family life but they would go under comedy central rather than this link. LOL I have always been a cop show fan. (Hill Street Blues, NYPD Blue, Third Watch, Rookie Blue and Blue Bloods)-Geez I do see a pattern) I graduated with a criminal justice degree, worked in the police academy. It is just my thing. For some reason I am just hooked on Rookie Blue unlike any other show. Thoroughly enjoyed Season 2. Was in shock over the coldness of season 3 and the horror that turned out to be season 4. Happy to get to enjoy the beginnings of season 5 with hopeful eyes. So happy that I stumbled upon this website almost four years ago. Many thanks to the amazing writers who keep me entertained from week to week. My first Rookie Blue story, Never too late for love was not full McSwarek but I loved writing it and am so proud of the end result. My next 3, Let's try this again, They Grow up so Fast and New York State of Mind are all Sam and Andy. I had a blast writing I think you might be Superman, and I truly feel that it might be the most creative I have ever been in my life...like ever. Just want to say thank you so much for the nominations and votes for my stories for the Rookie's Choice Awards. You guys are way too nice. I am honored and humbled. As always having a ball talking to all of you from all over the globe about our common thread. |
