It's a good thing I wasn't bitten by the travel bug earlier or I might never have finished my studies. In the last twenty years, I've lived in France, Germany and England and six major cities including Chicago, Los Angeles, Austin, London, Hamburg and Paris. I could've spent all my time immersed in the culture, language, and history were it not for the need to eat, sleep, or earn a living. As a full-time high school French teacher, I needed a departure to channel my creative personal efforts. My writing journey began in 2011 after seeing the historical drama The Eagle, based on Rosemary Sutcliff's novel, The Eagle of the Ninth. To realize that I knew nothing of Roman Britain only served as a challenge to learn all that I could. The more I researched over the past eleven years, the more I wrote. The Dark Before the Dawn is the first book in my historical fiction novel series.view less
