A true WriMo through and through. Writing is not my trade, however I have always enjoyed diving into the creation of spectacular fiction. After discovering NaNoWriMo last year (2007) I just can't get enough! I'm proud to call myself an author now; though sadly not published... yet! You can follow my NaNoProgress on my blog: Embarking on 30 Days of Literary Abandon.

Just me, the hubby, four kitties, a Dalmatian, and a Belgian Malinois. No "human" kids yet.

Clearly, I love writing... but other than fiction, haiku is my next love. I'm an avid reader, but unlike my writing habits I really love nonfiction. I have an extensive library that is the bane of my husband's existence as I reorganize it from time to time rendering our library/dining room useless in the process. I have become the family genealogist, doing quite a bit of extensive family history research. I've joined the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution as a result, and am an organizing member of a local chapter of the Colonial Dames of the 17th-Century. My husband and I love to travel, though we don't get to do nearly enough of it. And since we don't have "human" children at this time, our lives virtually revolve around our dogs.
