As a Pacific Northwest native, I took the leap from writing short stories and emotions reflected in poetry to creating my first novel. My style is to write in a way that often moves a reader to feel different emotions. 

I have been told that it is a complex and inspirational craft of descriptive writing and storytelling.

After over thirty years of personal writing, I was encouraged to publish my creative works by several close friends, experienced authors, my amazing muse, and an inspirational quote from Toni Morrison, “If there is a book you want to read that hasn’t been written then you must write it.”

So, I did during a four-month creative journey pouring out of myself “Moments With You”. I learned a lot after the publishing of this first book. One, the longest part is the editing and set-up, the writing was easy. 

MWU is what those in the industry call a "mega novel"  aka Megladon meaning big tooth. Not for those who don't like to chew... and chew... and chew. I suppose. Finally, the complex layers of MWU were not like a traditional "IR" but it fit better as a woman's contemporary fiction.

MFC is a condensed version of what was in my head and I loved how it turned out. I hope you do too. It is my desire that readers will relate to the realistic complexity of human behavior, and relationships while finding the beauty of self-discovery and becoming curiously hopeful. I defiantly have my own style and there are ways to write that amplify the principles I strive to uphold.    

After all, life is better with a book in hand—especially when paired with a cup of tea or glass of wine!
