I am a middle school teacher who moonlights in a book store on the weekends. I am an uber-nerd who loves the fantasy realm and the ability to escape into it.

I grew up in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (yes, the distinction of upper versus lower is important!) and used that location as the backdrop for my novel. I also drew on some personal experiences in order to flesh out the main character and her family before she is transported into the Fae world.
