New Author saying hello!
Greetings MobileRead forums! I was pointed here a while ago by those over at Kindleboards but never got around to making myself known. With the holidays and school behind me, and with a little bit more time on my hands, I figure now is as good a time as any to pop in and say, "Hello!"

As the post title says, I am an author. I recently self-published my paranormal action novel for those who enjoy the pleasure of eBooks, and will make a post in the self-promotion forum shortly. Currently I reside in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex with my family. You know, the standard wife, kids, dogs, cars, house, that sort of thing. I'm attending school for a degree in Information Technology, and work in the healthcare IT industry. I am an unapologetic Dallas Cowboys fans, and love gaming (board and video). My goal is to turn my kids into bigger geeks than me. So far so good, I think.

I hope to become a part of this community and look forward to interacting with you all.
