About Me |
|
Profile courtesy of Free MySpace LayoutsI am a middle-aged-and-proud-of-it native Floridian. Since I was old enough to hold a pencil, I have been creating fiction. Though I like many genres, I have settled on my favorite -- southern mainstream fiction. My first novel, "The Madhatter's Guide to Chocolate" was published in October of 2003. My second novel, "Up the Devil's Belly" was released in November of 2005. glitter-graphics.comYou can read about my books on my website, www.rhettdevane.com.I am a dental hygienist by trade;a profession that has provided hours of enjoyment and a stable income to support my writing endeavors. I am also a licensed massage therapist (part-time). Currently, I have pledged a percentage of my royalities to breast cancer awareness and support. |

You Are A Hazelnut Tree You're a charmer with a killer sense of humor. You are very demanding, but you can also be very understanding. No matter what, you always make a lasting impression - you're quite popular. Passionate, you are an active fighter for social causes and politics. In general, you are moody, honest, a perfectionist, and very sexual. What's Your Celtic Horoscope? |
