Reading is my passion. My favorite types of books are fantasy, sci-fi, and romance. I also adore the A&E/BBC six-hour Pride & Prejudice, LOTR, Vin Diesel's voice, Twizzlers, and peppermint flavored anything. Besides writing, I decorate fancy cakes and wrangle my children. I have an M.S. in Zoology and a B.A. in Biology with a Japanese minor. I also have two rambunctious kids. Check out my Indygodusk tumbler with pictures inspired by my stories.

Story Status:

Author Update: (08/28/21) I'm still working on my HP story Whispers. It got away from me so I'll probably take a break after I finish year two and write something else, then return at some point and add to the universe with later years and events.

As of fall 2018, I've written over a million words!!! Woohoo!!!

Hakama Dake WON for best Kenshin & Kaoru Romance/WAFF in the RKRC for 2005! Thank you so much and Yay!

The most awesome Quenya translated Hakama Dake into Italian. Wowzers! Go find her if you know Italian.

Passion ...

Passion, it lies in all of us. Sleeping...waiting...and though unwanted, unbidden, it will stir...open its jaws, and howl. It speaks to us...guides us...Passion rules us all. And we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love...the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow, empty rooms, shuttered and dank. Without passion, we'd be truly dead.
