About   (request update)
I was born October 10, 19… in good ole Queens, New York. I had a difficult childhood because I developed severe eczema and most of my schoolmates shunned me until high school. Books became my friend.
Early in life, I found myself fascinated by the macabre. I would actually set my alarm if one of my favorite Alfred Hitchcock, Rod Serling or One Step Beyond was coming on late at night. These kept me up ‘til the wee hours of the morning. Being raised in Amityville was the icing on the cake.
My biological mother died when I was thirteen, the age when puberty reared its ugly head. Needless to say, I was a wife and mother by the time I was seventeen, divorced at twenty. Then I met Fred, my second, current and final husband. We’ve been together 38 years. He helped me become an adult although I went kicking and fighting the whole way. Together, we raised 6 children. I’m now a Gramma of 8, Great Gramma of 2!
