I teach middle school in Greenville, SC. I grew up loving to read, and this passion grew into a love of writing as well. I wrote my first real story in sixth grade and sent it to my favorite author, Stephen King. I wanted to write movie scripts and do special effects for movies for a while after this. I found a real passion for writing in college. I got a job reviewing games for my local paper. Now, I teach and am working on a novel, as well as a variety of other short stories and works. |

I like to think of my work as intense. Sometimes, the intensity comes from an emotional situation; other times, from action. |
