"Reach for the moon. If you miss it, you will land among the stars."

I am a graphic designer on the East coast living the dream of every designer: having total creative leeway in my work.

I dabbled in the world of fan fiction when I was in high school, but I started writing with serious intent about two years ago.

When I discovered the beautifully imaginative universe of Twilight, I was ecstatic. As an avid fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, I latched onto the impossible romance of mortal and immortal – and I must say that I vastly prefer Stephenie Meyer's vampire lore to that of popular mythology and Joss Whedon (no offense).

I got the idea for my penname from SM's "The Host". One of Wanderer's many names during her journeys to nine worlds was "Lives in the Stars". It was so poetic. I just changed it a little bit.
