About the author
I have been writing since I was in grade school. First by hand, then by manual typewriter, electric typewriter and now with computer. The world of science fiction has always been my world. I currently have more books sitting in my computer files and am about to finish another one. I am married and have been in Texas for over nine years after traveling for my husband's work for years. I tell my friends and family that writing isn't my passion, it is my obsession. I have two dogs, Roscoe who is a 65 pound Lab mix and Hildy who is Chihuahua and Pug. If it weren't for them, I'm afraid I would never get away from my computer. I also like traveling. I and my dogs travel 2400 round trip about once a month to see my husband who is currently working out of town. I am thrilled to finally see my book in print. It is a thrill that will never get old.
