I remember when I was about five years old, I had The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss. My book came with a cassette tape, and I would sit there for hours listening to it and reading along, and that was how I learned some of my early sight words. I was a huge Babysitter's Club fanatic. I had so many of t...

Absolutely! Have to pass the time somehow. I generally stick to Readers Digest or a book I've already read. I realized some time ago that if I try to read a book that I'm very focused on, I struggle a bit more to take care of business.

We have four cats. We took in a stray about two years ago who got pregnant. She had four kittens, and we were only able to give one away. So now we have two incredibly fat females and two very stubborn males. We will ultimately get a dog, but I refuse to own a dog while I live in an apartment.

I have lived in one of the great hurricane states my entire life. On top of that, the neighborhood I grew up in is almost nothing but hundred year old oak and magnolia trees, so we would regularly lose power if somebody sneezed too hard. During hurricanes, we did rely on a generator to keep us conne...

Southern because I am from the South, and I'm quite proud of it. Bella has several meanings for me. I absolutely adored the character Bellatrix Lestrange from the Harry Potter series, and I've written several characters who were of that same mindset. The other meaning is that "bella" means...

Thought I'd pop in here and also second that.I don't have any of that in my profile section.

It's hard for me to read a book when the author's sentences are half the length of the page. We were reading it out loud to one another, and we both realized that we felt like we were reading one run on sentence after another. The reason we were even going to read the series was because we enjoyed t...

Howdy! My name is Kaycee. I am 24 and will be 25 in a month. It's such a weird feeling to be an adult. I've recently started my career working at my dream job. I investigate child abuse allegations, so I guess I'm destined to be disliked in my line of work. I have a degree in Social Work which I am ...

It's hit or miss for me. What helps me is going into the movie telling myself that details are going to be left out, so I just have to get over that. I'm a nerd and adore the Harry Potter books. I can nitpick every single movie that has come out, but I can also step back and say that a couple of the...
