I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE HERE I joined the indie community in 2011 and was writing YA fantasy. After a few years of it not feeling "right" I discovered romance. I started writing romance in 2013 and never looked back. I self-published my debut novel in January of 2014 and to date I have self-published 60+ books. I love writing about characters who conquer all odds and find love. While romcom is my jam, I do love romantic suspense and dark romance. I'm a little bit of sunshine and midnight all mixed into one! Random Facts About Me: I'm passionate about helping authors learn more about self-publishing and have a youtube channel dedicated to sharing my journey. I believe in fairytales and happily ever afters, and enjoy writing characters who find theirs. One day, I will become a hybrid author and hope to see my books on the big screen. I'm a Virgo, and I love collecting memes that I will probably never post. My hubby is an astronomer, and I openly tell everyone I am the "Penny" of the relationship. I enjoy reading thrillers and romance books. Glamping (glamorous camping) is one of my favorite hobbies. I was a corporate forecasting accountant for a decade before quitting my job to write full-time in 2020! "We are our biggest critics.
