About Veronica

In college I thought I'd become an archaeologist, I really did. So, I studied hard and got my degree.
But before I could start my career in archaeology, life got in the way.
I became a librarian, instead.
After a few years life threw a few more curve balls and I began writing. It didn't take long for me to figure out writing was my calling. I was home.
I write novels, features, and shorts. It's a blast!
