FROM AUTHOR'S WEBSITE: I'm a native of central Maine, and grew up on a small farm with a wonderful mom and dad, three sisters and a brother. Most of my books take place in small towns, many of them in Maine.

My husband, Jim, and I moved to his birth state, Oregon, for a while after we were married, but decided to move back to Maine and be near my family. It allowed our six children to grow up feeling close to their cousins and grandparents, and some of Jim's family have even moved to Maine!
Our children are all home-schooled. When Jim retired from his vocation as an editor at a daily newspaper, we moved from Maine to Kentucky.
I've always loved reading, history, and horses. These things come together in several of my historical books.

My stories feature characters readers will love with stories that encourage living out faith every day, even when life gets messy.
Growing up as a reader of Christian fiction, these are the types of stories that captured my imagination and grew my faith. These are the stories I still want to read. I love opening a story for entertainment and leaving it inspired in some way.
While my stories are fiction, each one contains a little bit of me on the pages. It might be found in the setting, a hobby the character enjoys, or a struggle I've faced in my own life.
