My love for Sci-fi/Fantasy stories began in the 3rd grade when our teacher read us A Wrinkle In Time. It was cemented with Heinlein's Stranger In A Strange Land several years later.

My love for writing blossomed around the same time. Most of my work was confined to poems and short stories, and I was lucky enough to encounter teachers who encouraged me. But life has a way of getting in the way of your ambitions, and I put aside my pen and paper for many years. Covid and a bout with Breast Cancer helped me to prioritize things, and writing again was at the top of my list.

I still have the copy of MADELINE awarded to me in the second grade. Reading Period was always my favorite part of the school day, and spelling bees, which I usually won unless Frankie Doetsch was present that day. Then we were the last two standing, and if I didn't choke, I won!

My first novel, Wishes Are Free, is strong on feel-good warmth and humor, healthy family relationships, and moments readers tell me gave them joyful goosebumps, that you get when you experience something beautiful.

I always wanted to connect with people in a feel-good way. Mission accomplished.

I was a quiet child. It’s good to be a quiet child. We’re thinkers and imaginers.

Imagination is a wonderful thing. Even Einstein, you know, the relativity guy, said imaginatio
