When I first became an author, and for many years after, this was what my bio photo looked like.
I wanted people to read my books, but I didn't want to be seen. I didn't think I would be accepted for who I am. But then I was offered an unexpected gift--an idea that came out of nowhere and changed everything: I don't need to be accepted for who I am, I just need to BE who I am. Let the rest of the world think what they think. As long as I believe in myself and my path, I will draw the right people into my experience who will love me (and my writing), weirdness and all. |

This is what my bio looks like now...

I have a mischievous muse. There's hardly a moment when I'm not jotting down story ideas on random sticky notes and scraps of paper. My subconscious typically works on 7 to 10 books at a time, all vying for brain space, even in my sleep—many scenes in my books come straight out of dreams. My nightly adventures are a constant source of inspiration for me.

In the past 3 decades, I have lived many lives. I've been a recording artist, a Hollywood sound effects editor, a playwright, a screenwriter, a west coast theatrical lighting designer, a graphic artist, a professional photographer, and a publisher. Through it all though, I've been a writer, periodically battling dark forces, but never stepping too far off the path.
