All I Want for Christmas …

All I want for Christmas is you … and you and you and you … But who, exactly, are you? We all have our different you’s who we long to be with, and who we miss if they’re not with us. In most cases, ‘you’ is our family, including the four-legged members. In my case, the [...]

About Me

Wendy Skorupski

Wendy Skorupski

My elixir of life is playing the piano and writing. I couldn’t live without either of those two dimensions! I’ve written several novels, with my latest one soon to be released.
