I have written a bit every day of my life from earlier than I can even remember. My first grade poem for the district anthology was the first time seeing my work published in some form. I was addicted from that point on. That poem, "Dog Beach", put me on an irrevocably interesting path. Ever since then writing has been my passion.
I'm 35, an American from the Buffalo, New York, area where I was raised and educated in the Science of Teaching and the Art of English Literacy. I've since been a resident in The Netherlands from 2002 onwards and I have a wonderful and brilliantly creative son, a beguiling and kooky fiance, a talkative and mystical cat, and plenty of inspiration through life's many twists and turns.
"Northwind After The Fall" is the introductory little novel/novelette in a series of at least three books I'm currently working on. I hope you enjoy reading my work as much as I enjoy dreaming it up.
"Dog Beach" -Angela Veneziano, age 6
"My dog, Chich
went to the beach.
He laid on his back for a tan.
The tide moved in.
He went for a swim.
He saw a big wave, so he ran!"
