About Me
I am the matriarch and co-founder of a new tribe of humans--the Zernites. We are known for our extensive use of plastic and the belief that life is for laughing--also snickering. Our fossilized remains can be found in the lowlands of Saint Cloud. On Tuesday and Thursday, I write seriously about serious things in a serious manner--also using big words. I am encouraged in this by my Rollins College professors. On Wednesdays and Fridays, I write silly things for fun.
Type of Writer
I am presently working on several manuscripts: two serious novels and a collection of humor essays--among other projects.
Writing Style
Short, sweet, to the point--hopefully
Interests
"Why the world wags and who wags it." (From the Once and Future King)
