One of My Own

If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why? I’ve written twelve novels, and there’s a series of mine where I’m more than likely going to pick the female protagonist. This book is available at Barnes and Nobles – The Dirty Deities. Before I realized my characters were…

A Middle School Teacher
