She currently doesn't have a pet, but she's working on that. In the meantime, she's learning to write stories and hopefully novels so that she will one day see her name in print. She tends to think her life is pretty boring, so she fills it with reading books about people whose lives are so much more interesting.
Anabelle is also an avid knitter and crocheter and loves to drink wine. Lots of it.
