My name is Shannon. I am a wife and mother on the verge of being an empty nester. My youngest two children are in 10th and 11th grade. I work my day job as a patient specialist, I do pre-registration for patients at hospitals across the US. I truly love my job. However, my dream job would be getting paid to just read. I love books! I am amazed by authors and their talents!
