I've always been a fan of playing -- which probably explains my career choice. Playing with words, with stories, with people -- er, characters -- is one of my favorite things to do. But when I'm not altering the course of true love for imaginary people, I'm usually doing something fun. Tennis is one of my favorite pastimes, though it does often depend on who's on the other side of the net. Somebody I can beat is good, though not too easily nor too often. Skiing is another passion, though it took a hit on my list of favorites a few years ago when I ended up tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in my right knee. Knee surgery was great for ensuring a lot of reading time -- not to mention catching up on DVD watching; seven seasons of Buffy, anyone? -- but it seriously compromised my tennis game. When I want to be alone, though, there's nothing better than hopping in the kayak and paddling down river. I love going down the Potomac River, either casting off from Roosevelt Island in D.C. where I can paddle past the Georgetown waterfront, the Kennedy Center, even the Lincoln Memorial, or heading out the C&O Canal in Maryland. All of those things take a back seat to writing, however, though the adventures I find in my playtime often end up in my books! (Watch for that slopeside EMT novel, complete with toboggan-stretcher ride to the bottom of the mountain, that I'm sure is in my future.)
