I'm a writer. It's how I earn a (LOL) living. Really. I edit 2 mags and contribute nonfiction articles to others. They pay me (surprisingly little) to do this. My husband Bob (a longsuffering guy who actively discourages me on an ongoing basis frm importing any more pets into our empty nest at this moment in time--we have zero pets! zero! this is a first in our house) is vastly envious of that. That kind of makes up for the no-pet thing. Kind of. I am constantly tempted by my hedgehog mania, however.
I also write middle-grade and young adult fantasy--and even got a book into print. My first middle-grade novel, "The Hidden Arrow of Maether," came out in 2000; the French version, "La Marque de L'Elue," came out in 2002. Now you know why I write nonfiction; it's a lot easier to make money writing that than fantasy.
On my list of life goals, just one remains: to live in Ireland more than 3 weeks at a time. To write a whole novel there. This is a goal my travel-happy critique group actively encourages (thanks, guys!). I even tried learning Irish--yikes! It conquered me. Okay, so not every SINGLE one of my life goals have been met. But at least I tried to learn Irish! Honest. Take my word for it, though; Norwegian's a lot easier.
