Cheryl and YukiI’m a fiction writer. Like most fiction writers, I’ve been daydreaming stories most of my life.

The first “novel” I wrote and finished, while in high school, was a post-apocalyptic story in which I inherited lots of money, built an underground bunker to save all my family and friends, including the boy that I had a crush on.

I was the well-loved heroine of the story. And I got the boy. :)

Naturally, that means I was destined to write science fiction, fantasy and romance stories.

Last year I quit my day job as a project manager for an insurance company to write full-time. I LOVE my new schedule.

Yuki sleeping by Mommy's keyboardNow I write on my laptop while sitting on the couch with my puppy sleeping beside me.

Or on me.

We’re still negotiating our seating arrangements.

Her name is Yuki (Japanese for “snow” and pronounced you-key) and she’s a Bichon Frise. She’s seven years old, so she’s not really a puppy any longer, but she’s little, so she’ll always be a puppy to me. My vet likes to call her “Yucky” as a joke. Haha.

I’m currently working on the second book in my romantic fantasy series, Words of Power.

You can track my progress (and holler at me if I’m slacking) on the front page in the sidebar. Or shoot me an email at cheryl (at) cherylcorbin.com.

Thanks for stopping by. Have you read the excerpt of Words of Spirit?
