I'm a Christian. This aspect of my life affects everything else.

I'm a homeschool teacher. My oldest is 8 and my youngest is four.

I work from home for a living. While my work doesn't pay a living wage, at least it keeps my kids in gymnastics and pays for a few other things.

I believe in the Constitution and the Founding Fathers of America. I spent several years in the Navy, and was working as an anti-terrorism officer in Italy on September 11, 2001.

I read nonfiction books for fun. I like good fiction books too though. Some of my ideas from writing come from the books I read (as well as some of the research).
