About Me:: Well her I am -- this photo is the most recent one and the only one I can stand of myself, other than the one in my role playing costume. The role playing costume is for the part-time work I do at a living history museum here in CT; I play the daughter and wife of two 19th century whaling captains. My "character" spent more than twenty years at sea. This museum character is the foundation of the main character in my historical novel and based on journals/stories of real women who actually did go to sea during the mid-19th century.
Anyway, when I am not working at the museum or writing, I am a teacher for middle through high school -- my thrid career. My first career was in the medical field and my second career was raising my two children, now older.
I also enjoy traveling, sewing and crafts.

Favourite Books: No favorite books -- there are SO many good ones out there! But I especially enjoy reading historical fiction, especially those involving women. Of course, I love all Jane Austin's books and of her novels, my favoirte is Persuasion.

Looks like we have similar taste in books. If you ever do read one of mine, I hope you like it. LOL

Take care,
