The Muse On Writing

What can I say? I'm a very busy gal...and loving it!

 

I was born in Montreal, Canada and writing as far back as I can remember. I didn't seriously start up again until 2000, when I picked up my first Writer's Digest magazine in a very long time. Within three months I had written my first screenplay, and the below accomplishments are just some of the many endeavors I find myself in. And between you and me, I love this writing world.

To get a quick glimpse of all my sites, link to the left on MY SITES.
