Confession: I don’t love Star Wars, Star Trek, or gaming.
And they let me write here anyway!
While I’ll leave the sci-fi and game reviews to the GeekMoms better suited to such topics, you will find that I get a little geeky over things like crafts (all the better if they require recycled materials), creative problem solving, young adult literature, and gardening. I’m famous for the line, “Hey, I’ve got an idea!” Around here, such a statement is generally met with rolled eyes, in spite of the fact that they’re really good ideas.
As a freelance writer and author, I write most often about family, fun, and travel. I also do craft development for a number of publications, allowing me to implement at least a few of those aforementioned ideas. Also? I am wicked good with tape, cardboard, and a hot glue gun (stay tuned!).
I live on the Big Island of Hawai‘i with my husband and two teen boys. (Despite the vision you just had of me on the beach with an umbrella drink, I still cook, do laundry, and clean toilets. Reality lives in Paradise, too.) My youngest son is 15 and a certified LEGO geek. My eldest, 17, is a musician and all about the ‘ukulele. The website he started back when he was 14 – Live ‘Ukulele – is quickly nearing 2 million hits. I seem to have done a fine job of raising up two perfectly geeky kids.
