I love words of all kinds. When I was in kindergarten, I could recite every one of my classmates' names, in alphabetical order and syncopated rhythm, from Georgia Bushnell to Andy Zooka.

I love words of all kinds. When I was in kindergarten, I could recite every one of my classmates' names, in alphabetical order and syncopated rhythm, from Georgia Bushnell to Andy Zooka. I still remember their names and, yes, that's pretty scary. My parents used to have me perform this feat for their friends, who laughed until they cried.

I write e-books and website copy and how-to articles and e-letters and newspaper and magazine articles and children's stories and blog posts. But I couldn't write code for websites if someone put a gun to my head. I am working on two other writing pieces right now: a middle grade novel and a memoir.

I'm crazy about new ideas, especially creative ones. I spend too much time going down "what if" paths, which are incredibly fun but suck up great gobs of time.

I like black licorice, the smell of new crayons, and the sound of foghorns. And rain. I really love rain. I know. It's weird.

And I know every line of the movie Spinal Tap, the rockumentary, by heart.
