About the author

Vanessa L. Gilbert

I always loved to write. I would write stories when I was a child and dream about being an author - so much so I told people I would one day be one. I continued to write short stories and such throughout my time in Elementary and Middle School. In High School I became distracted by the usual things (boys, school work, plans for the furture) and writing took a sad back seat. After High School I immediatly started college where I jumped from major to major. After being forced to settle with a business degree, I graduated and entered the work force. I wasn't sure what I was going to do till I remembered how much I loved to write.&nbsp;<br>With that I made a plan to have a part-time job but focus on writing a book and getting it out into the world. 6 short months later and "Adventure of a Lifetime" was published - as well my dreams of being an author. From there I started brainstorming ideas and working on my next book; which turned out to be the beginning of the Dexie Montgomery Series. Writing is all I've ever wanted to do - and now that I'm doing, I have no plans of stopping!
