I have a husband, two kids, a dog, and a fish.

Aside from that, I'm a self-proclaimed book nerd, obsessed with coffee, blogs and proper sentence structure. I thrive under pressure, and working in the editorial scene (as in, at my house, with my kids staring at me, almost never wearing a bra) has provided lots of that ... in the best way! When I'm not reviewing books on Madison Says, chasing after the little people that share my DNA, I'm trying to make a dent in my never-ending to-read list. I'm always changing and trying to do something bigger and better. Which is how I suppose I started freelancing in the first place.

There's really nothing I won't read, and aside from enjoying others' words, I love helping make those words prettier. Editing was always the obvious choice for me. I didn't think I had what it took to kick it as an author, but I knew how to beautify the stories that other people wrote.

Combining my love for books with my super nerdy love of the English language has been such a natural step, and being able to work with so many talented authors has been fun and inspiring.

I'm an over-sharer, and I like to talk and think ... and talk about thinking. My casual spurts of writing via blogging have been a great outlet for that!
