Hi there. I'm Jinxi.

I live in Southern California with Steve, my husband of 20 years, and our three amazing kids: Brynn, Shea and Aidan. As vegans and freethinkers, our family is committed to cruelty-free living and rational thinking.

Once upon a time, we lived through two crazy weeks of filming for the television show Wife Swap, where all sorts of drama ensued.

Though many moons ago I earned my bachelor's degree in psychology, today I am in the business of word slinging. I have co-written and edited five tattoo-related books for Memento Publishing, and currently serve as editor and senior writer for Tattooist Art Magazine.

I accept freelance writing gigs whenever possible and also run InkEditor.com. If you are in need of proofreading, writing, editing, or anything else along those lines, check out my services page and send me a quote request.

My husband and I recently bought a 100 year-old California bungalow and in our spare time keep busy with the restoration and love of our humble abode. Someday, when our teenagers are grown up and independent, we hope to live in a teeny-tiny house like this, as close to off-the-grid living as we can get.

I love to garden and you can often find me working in the yard and tending to my SFG. I also dig hiking, camping, reading, baking, sewing, and catching live bands play. My favorite food is popcorn and I can't live without peppermint tea.

Thank you for taking a peek inside of my world. I hope you enjoy your stay.

Winx, Jinxi
