So it Begins...

When I was a young girl, I remember reading Rudyard Kipling's "Just So Stories" about the origins of things... the alphabet, and rhinoceros skin and elephant trunks. I was fascinated by how things happened on the banks of the great, grey-green, greasy Limpopo river, all set about with fever trees. As I grew older, I learned more about the author and all his adventures between India and England, which fueled his ideas behind everything he wrote. He led an adventure-filled life in the wee hours between the 19th and 20th centuries, which - for me - grew into a deeper appreciation for his work.

The same copy of "Just So Stories" still graces my bookshelf, along with other childhood favorites like Yertle the Turtle, and new friends like Harry Potter.

It makes me think, as I venture into this world of writing, what would be said of me as time goes by? What will my Wikipedia page say about me? And, more importantly, what will they say about the pages upon which I toiled for many years; the work that reflects the inner workings of my mind?

Perhaps, dear reader, I should contribute some insight?

So, that's what this blog is for... to delve a little into the canon of my "magnum opus" as it were. I'm going to try linking things together over the coming, unspecified length of time so you might grow a little more knowledgeable about the characters, places and yours truly.

I'll do my best not to add any spoilers to unpublished works. As of this blog, there is only one book, but my brain is full of ideas and stories, so stay tuned!

You can find my book on Amazon, here.
