I grew up, the youngest of six children, in southern Maine. As a child, I constantly made up stories that entertained my family. As I grew up, I never grew out of my imagination or my fondness for story-telling. Even in school, I wrote a lot of stories, but I never had the nerve to show anyone. I eventually went on to college and graduated from the University of Michigan in 2006. Today I'm back in Maine, living near Portland. I'm happily writing my stories and reading anything entertaining that I can get my hands on. You can find me on Facebook at: http://www.facebook.com/pardonmonika
