About Me
Former retail manager currently pursuing my dream. I've always written stories, but it wasn't until I faced a layoff that I decided to pursue my lifelong passion of writing. Now I'm studying Writing and Publishing in DePaul University's graduate program.
Type of Writer
mainstream fiction, speculative fiction
Writing Style
Kind of Cormac McCarthy with a little bit of Joyce Carol Oates and Margaret Atwood mixed in. (Not that I'm on their level.:P)
