![]() I was toying with a zombie theme for a first-person 17 year old girl when I wrote forty pages of “Julie Rayzor” in three days and another 190 pages in five weeks. I sat down and wrote a 350 page mystery novel ( The Killers Co-op) which came out in August 2011. ![]() It was one of those major crossroads in life. There was a changing point in my career where I was laid off due to a company shut-down. I spent about 17 years intermittently writing those novels and getting rejected from publishers and literary agents. I’ve written three unpublished fantasy novels about a young wizard – not quite Harry Potter – my wizard-apprentice was dispelled from his home town for inappropriate relations with the Lord’s daughter. I’ve recently started playing guitar and I’ve owned a dusty keyboard for over twenty years. My artist side came out in bird carvings chickadees, parakeets, hawks, etc. I used to create oil paintings of horses and landscapes and I had a teenage point where I painted dungeon adventurers and dragons. ![]() ![]() I’ve always been artistic – very right brain, but I work as a software engineer so I’m very logical also. I write because I love the process of creation. ![]()
