Hi, my name is ChristineRCJR. I have been writing since I first picked up a crayon when I was a little girl. It was instant love the moment my emerald green Crayola crayon found a white wall to scribble on. Years have passed and I have gone from crayon to laptop. I write daily. Writing for me is like breathing. Writing fuels not only my creative side, but energizes my soul. Becoming a reviewer was an easy choice for me. I proudly proclaim that I am a book junkie. I•¿�??m a voracious reader. There isn•¿�??t a genre that I will not try, read, and review. I do have a few genres that are my forte: historical, contemporary, paranormal, and erotic. I came late to the steampunk genre party, but I really enjoy reading them. On a personal side I am the single mother of four teenage girls. The oldest two are in college and the youngest two are in high school. I just recently celebrated my 43rd birthday on March 23rd. My girls love to call me an old lady because I have a few gray hairs. I also have babies of the animal persuasion. Magnum, Velocity, and Bullet are my three dachshunds who are spoiled and act more human than dog-like. When I•¿�??m not writing, reading, or reviewing, I am an avid FoodNetwork and Cooking Channel watcher. My latest passion is watching NBC•¿�??s •¿�??Who Do You Think You Are?•¿�?? and seeing all the interesting ways to research your history using online sites or your local institutions. I have four blogs: RCJR eZine, Over the Edge, Rockn•¿�?? the Muse, and Saucy & Sinful. On January 1, 2012 I launched the official review site and electronic magazine, RCJR eZine.
