I am currently involved in the 2011 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award contest. My young adult paranormal novel "Bloodstone" is a quarter-finalist. I was reading on the Amazon discussion boards that reviewers might want to find me on the web. As a result, I decided to create this blog.
In this blog, I plan to discuss my writing process and to post useful links that I find related to writing. I have read so many fantastic blogs by great writers and reviewers that are using blogspot. Now I can follow all of my favorite blogs!
I'm also a twitter addict. My twitter handle is @serendipbrit if anybody would like to follow me.
In addition to writing, I like to read (young adult novels, of course, as well as romance). I love any stories with paranormal elements in them. I have so many favorite authors that I can't list them all, but just a few are Laurell K. Hamilton, Melissa Marr, Sophie Jordan, Kiersten White, and Tera Lynn Childs. My favorite non-fiction authors are Julia Cameron, Natalie Goldberg, and Eric Maisel.
Although I believe that what people "do" for living isn't all that important, I have worked as a martial arts instructor, a purse designer, a private tutor, a freelance writer, a test technician, a family housing specialist, and a psychosocial rehabilitation specialist. My undergraduate degree is in English, and I almost have a Master's Degree in Counselor Education (have to complete that pesky internship).
When I'm not writing, I enjoy spending time with my animals (four dogs, two cats, two rabbits, and a fish!).
