I was born in Massachusetts, grew up in California, went to school in Texas and raised my children in Indiana and West Virginia, and no, I’m not in a military family. I usually tell people I move around a lot because of credit fraud, but the truth is I take opportunities and I’m not afraid to try something new. I knew when I graduated from college that I wanted to raise a family. I really enjoyed staying home and raising the munchkins, and plan on titling my next book, “Hot Lunch Ladies, exposed…” Here’s the kicker, as a stay-at-home mom, you really are stuck when re-entering the workforce. Somehow being a Barbie fashion designer, legume manufacturer and intake manager, Lego architect and hot lunch lady didn’t create a curriculae vitae that excited prospective employers. I decided to go back to school to get more education, or maybe to just hide from growing up any further. I now work as a science teacher, torturing adolescents with the knowledge of how plants have sex, I still find time to write in my own imaginary world. Actually it’s on a laptop in the laundry room, but it feels like a tropical island.
