As an activist for women, I like to concentrate on stories and subjects supporting gender equality and strong female leads. Judy Blume is and was a tremendous influence for me and I wish to follow in her footsteps by creating books that are entertaining, informative and inspirational.

I'm also the author of The Virgin Diaries & Ain't No Sunshine: Men Reveal The Pain Of Heartbreak.

I interviewed seventy-two men and women on their "first time." I concentrated on the feelings more than the act.
ANS: Ain't No Sunshine - Men Reveal The Pain Of Heartbreak features thirty-eight men describing what it feels like to lose romantic love. I am excited!!!
I was born in Baltimore MD but grew up in Los Angeles CA. Because my father worked for ABC news, I had the opportunity to spend one school year living in Moscow, Russia when I was twelve.
For more than seven years, I played a Police Officer on Days Of Our lives.
I have also appeared on Mad About You, Diagnosis Murder and a Mercedes Benz commercial. The acting biz was an amazing experience but I ultimately decided I no longer wished to pursue it as a career. I then focused full time on sales. I've sold perfume, fine bone china, industrial chemicals....I have had an interesting journey!
In 2004, I started collecting stories for TVD. I would drop the project for a time and then start back up. My mother (Ann Werner) who writes fiction collaborated with me and together we created Ark Stories (arkstories.com). In 2010, we finally put out The Virgin Diaries and I found my true calling. I love making anthologies.
