Dr. Scully Inspired me to Write


There weren't a lot women for a teen girl of the early 90's to look up to. Then Dana Scully came along and changed everything. Here was a confident woman, who was considered equal to her male counterpart. She was smart and challenged her partner with her intellect. I wanted to be her.

I also fell in love with the writing on the show. The long exposition heavy monologues were music to my ears. Now I have always been a writer in some form of fashion. I do recall selling speculative stories on the playground in the 3rd and 4th grade. In the 80's I found an old typewriter and spent a good couple of years writing on that. It wasn't until the X-files and my family getting a computer that I began to write in earnest.

2nd Edition of Book 1


My first novel was started in 1997. It had nothing to do with the paranormal but it did have a male and female FBI agents as the main characters. This novel, Red on the Run, was put aside for many years and wasn't completed until November 2014. I self published it in 2015 and was signed later that year with Evolved Publishing. They will be publishing the The Syndicate-Born Trilogy in 2016-2017. The second edition of this first book is going to be launched March 28, 2016.

A TV show I watched twenty-three years ago turned out to have a big impact on me as an adult. I couldn't be happier that in just four days I will be watching a brand new X-Files episode. Thank you Chris, Carter for making a show that made me want to believe...in me. Thank you Gillian Anderson for showing me through your character that it was okay to be confident and put myself out there.

Friendship in Letters: Dear Jason January 2012


Dear readers,
Please enjoy my newest letter from my letter series. This weeks letters are to Jason from Katherine and Ellie. Poor Jason is going through a hard time in his life and isn't coping well. The first book in the Syndicate-Born Series is coming out March 28th! Are you excited? I am!

Letter from Ellie to Jason. January 31, 2012. 

Dear Jason, 

Thank you for the advanced reader copy of your latest book. It really loved it and said so in the reviews I posted on-line.  I'm sad that the series is over, but am looking forward to the next one. 

I finally got around to going through my mail and I must admit that I am a little worried about your last letter. I have enclosed a business card of a colleague of mine that might be able to help you. He is expecting a call from you. Yes, I am going to pester you until you call and make an appointment. 

Love always, 
Ellie 
(Your biggest fan)

Letters in Friendship: Dear Ellie (Jason)



January, 23, 2011

Dear Ellie,

I hope you girls are having a good time in the sunshine. I know Katherine has been looking forward to this trip for weeks. Please don't be offended that I didn't tag along. The deadline for my next book is looming over me and I find that it is hard to write these days. The panic attacks are always simmering just below the surface. I dream about the cabin every night and wake up with the lingering smell of blood. During the day I just try and stay busy and not think about it too much. It helps when Katherine is out, because just seeing her face brings it all back in one crushing blow. I'll get over it.

I've been working all morning. Today is a good writing day. The clickety-clack of the keyboard is the best sound in the world. When your fingers fly over them without pause. A freak warm spell has descended on Virginia and it is actually raining today. The thunder and the sound of the rain tapping on the windows in my bedroom are a comfort to me. Sorry, this letter is even bumming me out. Don't worry, I will be back to by bitter sarcastic self in no time.

Soak up some sun for me.

Love,

Jason
