Oldest of 4 sisters. Almost fluent in Spanish. I'm a California girl. My cats understand me better than any one I know. Became interested in reading and writing as hobbies at the age of 7 1/2 when my father read to us Lemony Snicket's: A series of unfortunate events. It sparked a desire to create what I felt or imagined and share it with others. I hope this site can help me buff out any faults in my writing.
