Born and raised in Arizona, my travels had been limited to California, Nevada, and New Mexico until I married a man doing a stint in the Army. If the Army offered nothing else, we at least had the opportunity to see a good part of the world. And we found we liked moving around. Our gypsy hearts have kept us on the move in civilian life but we think we've settled down at last on the prairie in northern Arizona. When I'm not at my laptop, I enjoy hiking, motorcycling, fishing, live theater, and baseball. I’ve been writing most of my life, but didn’t take myself seriously as a writer. I was convinced I was meant to be an artist. Sometime after college, I found more satisfaction filling a blank page with words than an empty canvas with color. I left my paints behind. I love connecting with readers so feel free to contact me: brenda@brendawhiteside.com
