Some Excerpts
[Why did you start writing?]: When I was a kid. Writing has always been my preferred method of communication. I suffered an embarrassing stutter almost into my teens. For Xena tales, in '96, I began a time-travel story using a character who worked with Xena and Gabrielle reluctantly. The story translated into a fun diversion that became addictive.
Xena, the show, has been enjoyment. The greatest fun was meeting all the folks in Xena forums and abroad. Over the years, I've collected megadoses of recipes to promote wisdom, crafts, understanding, and definition. The first time I put up a Xena fan fiction tale and received positive feedback, I was hooked as a writer. People, Xena People, are great.
No, no, no. [Xena's] not over. The actors and producers and promoters may have bowed out. But, Xena and Gabrielle will never be over in all those hearts who keep their own smiling dreams and fantasies.
