Deborah Hawkins, penned Debra Renée Byrd, began writing after a blank book project in elementary school and never stopped, fashioning stories based on her favorite TV shows and movies before creating more original works. She studied at the University of the Arts and Florida State University before settling down and graduating from Temple University. She now resides in her hometown of Dover, DE, where she spends most of her time at work or at church. She loves fantasies, superheroes, is a trekkie and a brown coat. She loves television and lives for Final Fantasy video games, having collected most of them. She has read a myriad of authors, and her favorite authors change whenever she finds a new book that changes her life... "When you can't run, you crawl. When you can't crawl...well, you know the rest." -Tracey, Firefly, "The Message"

Express Yourself Weekly and News



Happy Tuesday! Welcome back to Express Yourself Weekly, brought to us by Jackie @ Bouquet of Books and Dani @ Entertaining Interests! Each week they have a question for us to answer, and this week's is:

If you could try out one occupation for a week, what would you choose?

I would love to be a WWE Diva for a week. It's always been a dream of mine to wrestle, but I think I'm even shorter than the average Diva and have no flexibility. I think I'd be a hard-hitter, though, and could do some good submissions.


In other news: TODAY IS THE DAY! Cactus Heart Press Issue #11, The Speculative Fiction Issue, is out today! My short story "Origin" is now a published piece of work! I'm so excited. This can only be the start of big things for me, so I can't wait to see what else happens. :-D

Friday Freeday

The good news is that I finished a scheduled post for Monday. Of course, I forgot to schedule one for today.

But it's still Friday, so Happy Friday! :-D

I spent 6 of the last 24 hours writing 8 pages worth of answers for the supplemental questionnaire that accompanies the state application. After one full month of the position Admin I just down the hall from me being open, they finally posted it as a vacancy.

I'm currently reading Sophie Perinot's historical fiction The Sister Queens. The last historical fiction I read murdered my soul (devastating twist near the end), so hopefully there is a happier ending at the end of this. I at least know a little more about Queens Eleanor and Margaret because I wiki'd them. *wink*

Now, I plan to go upstairs, get my charger, and revise a little of my WIP. Have a great weekend!
