About Me

I'm a wife, mom, writer, super hero...okay, one of those is NOT true.

Below are a few things about me:

I'm Indian. Was born there, but at the ripe old at of 6 we moved to the states. I grew up around the Washington DC area but no longer live there. I miss it, especially during the fall.

I'm under five feet tall.

I met my husband at a wedding. It was the wedding of my sister to his brother. Yes, sisters married to brothers. It's perfectly legal.

I have four beyond gorgeous children: 2 boys and 2 girls. Perfect.

I've been writing since the second grade. I remember writing a mystery about a kid named Nevada in my class who is falsely accused of stealing another classmates hat. I drew pictures and everything.

I love writing and reading YA.

Favorites:

Color: pale yellow because it's happy, and green because I look good in it.
