Olympia Octavia Penelope Smith hates her name. Of course, changing it to something else is out of the question, but no one said anything about nicknames. So one morning, Olivia sets out to find a nickname. What she ends up with and who provides it is the most surprising thing of all.
I live with my wife and our wonder dog, Gracie, on five wooded acres close enough to Puget Sound to hear the fog horns when the weather turns nasty. In addition to writing stories, I enjoy playing my horn (a trombone), hiking and mountain biking in the nearby the woods and Olympic mountains, rowing my wherry on Puget Sound and Hood Canal, and spending time with family and friends.
