A Year with The Center
It’s hard to believe that one year ago today, The Center was published and released into the world. What started as an idea in my head became a story I could actually share with readers. Watching it find its way into people’s hands and hearing from those who connected with the characters has been one […]
What’s it like?
I’ve said, many times, that I’m not sure exactly what I should put in my blogs. I’m not sure what would be interesting to readers. I’ve never considered my life particularly exciting, or any different really, from anyone else’s. I work, pay bills, try to balance relationships and friendships with the mundane. Cook dinner, do […]
Finding My Fairy Godmother
Aug. 2nd, 2025 In my last post, I talked about the process, or lack thereof, of writing The Center. I talked about trying and failing to find an agent. Trying to find a publisher that didn’t want WAY too much money to publish and trying and wavering on believing I had a good book. I […]

It Takes a Village
June 24, 2025 It Takes a Village: I was blessed and fortunate enough to be raised by a loving and generous village. I’ve mentioned before that my mother was a single mom, working and going to school full time. Not to mention (and I think she’ll forgive me for saying) just a little bit self-absorbed. […]
Patience Is Not One Of My Virtues
I’ve discovered that patience is not one of my virtues. Waiting for the contract on my next book, Recovery is one of the hardest things I’ve ever done… Well, maybe there’s been harder things, but I sure can’t think of them tonight! So, while I wait, I’m trying to keep myself occupied. I’ve been working […]
