Author bio

I learned to read later than most people but my families enthusiasm for words was very contagious and so I too began enjoying words. My favorite writers are Horatio Alger Jr., Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Dame Agatha Christie, Leslie Charteris and Mark Twain. Some day I want to be an author of books, but right now I'm studying and learning my craft which is why I'm so excited to be part of reedsy. My favorite story is mystery and comedy. Please leave comments on my stories, I'm trying to grow to be a great author and that's not possible without learning what is bad so I can fix it next time. Thank you for reading. God Bless!
