We Have A Winner!

First, let me thank all of you for your entries and book suggestions. I was amazed at how few repeats there were. It's encouraging to know that there's so many good books at there that touch so many different people.
Congratulations "Julie S". You've just won a $15 Giftcard from Barnes and Noble! I will contact you via email. You have a week to email me back. If I don't hear from you, the giftcard will be used for another giveaway.
Thanks again to everyone-- be sure to check back for future giveaways, reviews, and thoughts on writing.

About Me

I'm a wife, a mom, and a writer-- usually in that order, but sometimes I get my rolls confused.

I've been a lover of good writing and literature since I was a child. I have a BA from BYU in (of course) English Literature, and though I don't read it exclusively, I tend to find myself hovering around the Fantasy sections of the book store.

I've always loved writing, but I never thought I'd write fiction (if I had, I definitely would've taken more creative writing classes in college *sigh*). But two and a half years ago I was up at a cabin for a family reunion, driving through the pine trees and the rolling hills, when the thought came to me, "this would be a great setting for a story." My mind took off from there and hasn't slowed down since.

So now here I am, hearing voices in my head, waking up in the middle of the night with a great plot twist, and forcing my children to ask me questions three or four times because my mind is off wondering through enchanted forests and magical kingdoms.
