Fantasy and science fiction films were her staple diet growing up, firmly establishing her love and passion for storytelling of the otherworldly kind.After a very successful professional dance career, spanning 25 years, she began writing seriously in 2009 when her dance career came to an end and her husband and greatest supporter urged her to finally make a start.Her first writing project was The Sword Bearers tetralogy, the culmination of 42 years of joyous creation begun the day she saw Star Wars for the first time when she was eight. The Sword Bearers is currently being rewritten and split into 12 shorter books to create a series."The Door" has been published by Monique herself and is the first of many short stories she has planned.She is also a professional actress, dance teacher, choreographer, and playwright.view less
