Bewildering Stories biography

to Bewildering Stories bibliography

I am a recent graduate of West Virginia University (Go Mountaineers!), where I obtained a BA in English with a concentration in creative writing. Being recently married, I get most of my inspiration from my husband and little boy.

As a child, I kept journals of poetry, mainly illustraing my love for nature. As an adolescent, my poetry evolved to boys and friends, but most importantly, my deep passion for the world around me.

I am looking forward to submissions and (hopefully) publications in the future. (There’s a lot more where that came from!) Thanks to all who appreciate my writing.
