I have loved writing for as long as I can remember. One of my favorite early school memories is when the principal of my elementary school used to let me read some of my stories over the loudspeakers during morning announcements. I read pretty much anything, but some of my favorite writers are Walter Mosley, Patrick Neate, Stephen King, and Alice Walker. Of course, my list of favorites changes on a near daily basis! I am currently revising the first draft of my first novel, Sugar Spring, which is a paranormal thriller. My ultimate goal in writing is simply to learn to tell the stories I want to tell the way I want to tell them.
