Call me Cassandra. I'm a fourth-generation Coloradan, the mother of a grown son who flies for Sky West Airlines, a writer, former editor, and amateur astrologer with a strong interest in history and a mild addiction to politics. I've helped run several political campaigns and have been asked to run for office myself, which I briefly considered in all seriousness before sobering up and coming to my senses. I enjoy reading, especially mysteries, biographies, and well-written romances, as well as (of course!) the Harry Potter books. I am owned by two dogs, a Westie (Charlie) and Sheltie (Belle) with whom I enjoy going for long walks. I also enjoy gardening, listening to classical music and jazz, and lately, writing fanfics. I have been a card-carrying member of WCAWLHPTM (Women of a 'Certain Age' Who Love Harry Potter Too Much) for some time, but only recently discovered fanfics and started writing them in an effort to overcome a bad case of writer's block. I love to read reviews and leave them whenever I have anything constructive to say.
I can frequently be found on a couple of forums, The Reviews Lounge and The Sober Universe (which tends to attract a more 'mature' or experienced crowd). Links are included below. Hope to 'see' you there!
