So, here's a few things about me. I'm a lover of coffee, music, quotes, movies, art, history and romance.

I'm a chronic over thinker. I tend to drive everyone around me bonkers because I over think everything - and I do mean EVERYTHING!

Writing it my passion. Writing is a great outlet for my overthinkingness (yes, I realize that's not a word, but it sure as heck sums me up.)

My current works in progress for publication are 'A Ray of Hope' out in May 2013, and 'The Truth in Lies.'

When not spending time with my family, I'm either writing, chatting with friends, or working diligently towards obtaining my bachelors degree in Speech Pathology and Audiology.

Many of you have requested the whereabouts of A Different Kind of Pain. I pulled ADKoP down on January 1, 2013, due to my efforts in having it published into a book series. There will be some considerable changes to the novel version, but it's for the best. The premise remains the same. For more information about my publishing efforts, feel free to check out my website. I now have an excerpt of The Truth in Lies up on Wattpad.

A Facebookpage has also been set up where pic and music teasers are being posted as well as any kind of news. You may also follow me on twitter at Sparklingwand.

While I greatly appreciate the request to translate several of my stories, I must decline these offers. I mean this in no disrespect to my readers, but several of my pieces are foundations for other works I'm doing, and translations at this time are just not possible.

All of my stories can also be found on Wattpad. I'm listed on all sites as Sparklingwand.

Also, all of my banners and blinkies are located on Photobucket. I'm listed there as Sparklingwand as well.

Thank you all for reading. Without you, I'm nothing more than words on a page. I may write them, but you bring them to life.

Review Pledge

"I promise to review (kindly) every fanfic I read whether it be fantastic, useless, or anywhere in between. I make this pledge because I know how frustrating it is for an author to have hundreds (or thousands) of hits and only a handful of reviews." Copy and paste this onto your profile if you promise to do the same.
