Mountain Springs House Blog Tour!

Mountain Springs House Publishing is kicking off a blog tour!  From Memorial Day until Labor Day, all interested authors connected to MSHP-- signed, prospective, and anyone in between-- will be hosting and guest posting along each other's blogs!  You can learn more about Mountain Springs House Publishing at www.mountainspringpublishing.com or their facebook group, Mountain Springs Facebook Page.  Be sure to like them for all the latest news of their up and coming titles!  

Now, I'm going to preface all this by saying that I'm a blog tour virgin.  I'm looking forward to seeing where all I end up over the course of the summer, chatting with new people, and maybe even getting the kick in the rear I need to keep up with regular postings!  This entire process is going to be a learning experience for me, so please...be gentle! 

Next week, I will be hosting Kathy Ree, and I will be hosted on Veronica Cronin’s blog.  We will be discussing what has inspired us to write our current books.  I'm excited to see how similar (or different!) our inspirations may be! 

A little bit about me: 

I’m an Army wife, mom to two beautiful girls, and our diva English Bulldog named Duchess.  I’m also a full time student working toward a BA in English Literature from Grand Canyon University, set to graduate in 2015.  For the moment we call Virginia home, but I’m originally from Central Ohio.  In the last 13 years we’ve lived in Germany, Tennessee, Ohio, Hawaii, Texas, and now Virginia.  

I hope to have my first book completed before the year is out, if the stars all align correctly.  From the first time I opened a book, or maybe as soon as I learned how to write, I have wanted to become a writer.  No matter how often I tried to plan something else to do when I grew up, I always came back to writing. 

Tiny tidbit of trivia:  I was a Girl Scout in the same troop as MSHP founder Allison Bruning way back when.  I had earned the Silver and Gold Awards as a Girl Scout, and my oldest daughter is currently working on her Silver Award project with her troop as well.
