I live in Wasilla Alaska, I spend the winter months reading, watching movies, and crafts with the kids. During the short 3 month summer, Im out and about doing all that I can before snow falls again.

I have a bearded dragon named Tubby Toe'Licker Malone, and I have recently started to take in stray reptiles that I later find forever homes for. I also show guinea pigs (cavies) with our local chapter in Anchorage. I am a slave to a bloodhound named Isebella (papered idiot) and a blind chow chow named Keeva. It seems that everything in my house has a flaw or five.

I have been writing short stories for my friends and family upon request until they finally urged me to try and get my first book "TAINTED" published. The story isn't finished. There are 4 books in my head with the first out in print and the second finished awaiting publishing. If the books are together in a set they will spell out TORN.

I do hope that you enjoy the story as much as I enjoyed writing it. Tainted is an author's unedited copy
