Author bio

I am an English Teacher and writer. I live in Panama City, Florida with my fiance, George, and two children, Kara and Alex. I love writing and have been writing since I was a young child. I love the short story. My specialties are writing science fiction, fantasy, and horror, but maybe with a trace of romance. I hope anyone would enjoy reading my stories. And thank you to anyone who likes or follows my works. I hope you all enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them.
