Growing up, I wanted only a few things when I got older. I wanted a great husband (which I got) and to be a published Author (which I am both traditionally and self-published). After high school, my writing had been floundering for a direction. A friend handed me The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice (which I've met and she was amazing!!!) and I've never looked back. See, I'd had a love of a vampire since 7th grade when I saw the movie Lost Boys at a friends' sleepover. Loved them ever since. Now, I write exclusively vampire stories and have even dabbled in vampire erotica and vampire crime (set in my hometown). I was an exchange student in Brazil in high school so many of my stories have a Brazilian influence. In fact, I just wrote a book all about a friend in Brazil (still fiction) and even translated it into a Portuguese version since she doesn't speak English. I'm hoping to have it out before Christmas 2015. Please free to contact me as I love to hear from people and enjoy research if you have a problem you need help with. I'm pretty resourceful.
