Thank you for reading.   A few words about me: I write either compulsively or not at all.  I am a practicing Psychotherapist, as well as a Past Life Regression Therapist, a mother and step-mother, animal lover, and immersive cook.  I was born in Dallas, Texas in January 1968, the oldest of 5 children, and raised mostly in Dallas, except for a few years of high school in Italy and college in Switzerland and Washington DC.  I moved to Austin, Texas in 1989 and I've been here ever since.  My personal symbol is the lightening bolt, for a lot of reasons. My favorite movie is The Fifth Element. I'm an optimist and a spiritist.
