Maybe it's because my feisty grandma chased tarantulas around with a broom when we lived on an oil lease property when I was a baby that made me love danger and adventure. And maybe it was my father's spending nights as a trombonist with the bands of his day and his days spent drawing sketches that sparked my artistic side. Do you suppose that because my mother stood only four feet ten inches tall that I feel like a giant at five feet? And I'm sure my FBI (Full Blooded Italian) step-father, his seven brothers and sisters and their families are responsible for my LOVE of Italian food. That's who I am. Who are you?
My First Book, Peppy The Frog That I Wrote In The 2nd Grade
I'll always be a child at heart. Whenever I close my eyes, wonderful, funny, awful, embarrassing memories of middle school/junior high come flooding back to fill the pages of my contemporary novels. My childhood friendships and rivalries with old enemies all find their way into my books. I've even spied on my own kids for story ideas.
Unlike most kids who can't wait to grow up, I've gotten younger--at least my stories have. I've stepped into the world of 7 to 10 year olds.
I and my husband, Jim, live in Texas on Lake Lewisville north of Dallas. We are owned by our greyhound, Miller. Our favorite things to do are traveling the world and boating.

I recently read this to finish some unread books on my bookshelf. I got this at a yard sale for free (when you're offered a book in good conditions for free, you OBVIOUSLY take it. Common sense.) anyway, I just recently read this, and i really enjoyed it. The author has good descriptive writing.
But, you gotta say, it was unrealistic. I mean, who would cheat on five girls at once and actually see one after another on dates? That's a busy schedule! Then, of course, they find out and get revenge. That was really predictable. Overall, I enjoyed it, even though I knew what was going to happen in the end.
