I have been called many names but these three are true.

Writer.I’m a daytime scriptwriter/ producer and nighttime crafter of stories, poems, novels. I write until I bleed.

Reader.  Most days I read young adults, sci-fi, fantasy, adventure, comedy. I read Jane Austen when I’m feeling consumptive. I read JK Rowlings on the days when everything has gone wrong and I need to feel like I’m the Chosen One.

Ideal Eater. Six to seven times a day. Breakfast, elevensies, lunch, foursies, dinner, supper, midnight snack. My husband who fancies himself a home chef claims I’m his ideal eater. There are high expectations associated with this role. I eat to cope.
