I am a professional writer and Web developer. I have written two books on the Internet and Web design that almost no one other than my mom has read. :-)

I love to read, mostly Science Fiction, but some urban fantasy. I also read mysteries (I love Dick Francis novels when I'm on an airplane.) and I end up reading most books on the best seller list, when recommended by friends. I have been known to read economics text books and cereal boxes when there's nothing else around to read.

I also love to travel. I have lived in Australia and Uzbekistan as well as the United States. I would like to visit all of the 50 states - and ride rollercoasters while I'm there. I currently live in a (good) roller coaster-free zone - the Pacific Northwest. (We have a coaster, but it's sad.)

I love to ride my horse.

• I ride Dressage
• I am learning show jumping
• Eventually I want to do cross-country and compete in a 3-day event.

I love to spend time with my husband and son.

• Sting
• Moulin Rouge
• rain
• bird calls

And authors...

• Robert A. Heinlein
• Mercedes Lackey
• Ursula K. LeGuin
• Dick Francis

• The Princess Bride
• Dead Again
• The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (but especially The Return of the King)

• Paper crafts (ATCs, Collages, mail art)
• Learning acrylic painting
• Charcoal drawing
• Book binding

"The time has come, the walrus said, to speak of many things. Of shoes and ships and ceiling wax, of cabbages and kings."

--from Alice in Wonderland

"All cats are black after midnight"

--Robert A. Heinlein

We don't really have TV, so most of what I get is on Netflix a year or tow after it comes out. That said, I love:

• Dr. Who
• Torchwood
• Buffy the Vampire Slayer

I love post cards of all kinds. I prefer ones that show where you live, but any card that you like I will probably like. Even ad cards can be fun if you write something interesting on the back.

• unused postage stamps
• unused postcards
• anything with: eeyore, horses, dogs, cats, dragons, unicorns, or Irish/celtic motifs on it
• chocolate - but not white chocolate
• green tea or decaf/herbal teas
• lists of your favorite books to read
• interesting stories about yourself
• penpals
• world peace
• AND a magic wand to get my 2-year-old to sleep before I want to go to bed :-)

Favorite Colors

• forest green
• purple
• brown
• gold

I appreciate any comments people make about my swaps. I am always looking to improve myself, my art, and my writing, so all constructive comments are appreciated.

I will also try very hard to give positive and constructive feedback to anyone who sends something to me.
