I have been writing for over twenty years, first published at fifteen in a teen magazine with a sappy poem which I dedicated to an “it” pop star. With the poem fueling my fire, I continued to write about celebrities, movies, music; all manners of media. My work has since expanded greatly and has been published in newspapers and online.

As a self diagnosed bipolar with both ADD and OCD, staying motivated to pursue a real career as a writer always seemed to take a backseat to "ooh look something shiny". But it was all just excuses to procrastinate; ah the sordid life of a writer's mind hard at work indeed.

My blog, Random Lunacy, has been a wonderful foray back into the world that exists in my head; the tragically misunderstood, smoker who will one day marry a rock star. Most of the posts over there are edgy or sarcastic with a wry sense of wit and matter of fact take on life.  Then again, sometimes I write peppy little poems and use way too many ♥ and :-)

To satisfy the other personality, the one that cares, I also write Green Leaf Reviewer almost daily.  This is the spot where I review all kinds of interesting eco-options and give my honest opinion on their usefulness for the planet.

Sometimes I do faux finishing.  Other times I make purses.  All the time I work from home and enjoy the flexibility of doing so without children.  My husband and I truly enjoy traveling, eating hot meals together and the ability to completely corrupt and spoil the snot out of our five nephews. 

I also curse a lot, but rarely in my writing, and I am addicted to Facebook and coffee.
