Writing, singing

Have spent the last four years arduously pulling off the hopeful victory of a modern fiction and Sci/Fi romance novel, based largely on the experience, dreams and courtship of my actual Aerospace Engineer husband and I, along with our two bevies of friends and their catwalks and dog fights. What's in the book too is my sporadic yet sensational singing non-career, on South Beach Miami, and to the ocean...which waved at me.
