about me

Thirty-something wife, mother of three amazing children, and aspiring novelist.

Random note: I grow tired of things easily, so you will see my avatar change frequently.

If I like your book I will certainly back it, but please don't feel slighted if I don't leave a comment or if my comment is short and sweet (offering critiques is not my forte). Besides, I'm not a published author. I would have no way of backing up constructive criticism, other than it just being my opinion. And honestly, you don't need my opinion. It's the opinion of a professional that is needed.

May we all one day see each other in print!

Love to you all !

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
--Teddy Roosevelt
