About the Author
I am a transplanted Canadian (now also an American citizen) who moved to the States in 1999 for a technical writing job. Two years later I got laid off. Instead of looking for another job, I decided to take a gamble on writing fiction.
I live with my husband, three children, two dogs, four cats, two horses, and a goat in North Carolina.
