Hello! 

Writing was only one of many things I wanted to do as a grown up.  Looking around my school I thought I'd make a pretty good janitor and adored the idea of messing up the clocks for April Fools. On the other hand, being a kindergarten teacher seemed extremely fun. In my free time I would have poem writing competitions with my classmates and thought maybe I could be a poet! In high school I was introduced to marketing and enjoyed designing, planning and selling which led to 25 years of careers in business. 

 

I thought all that marketing and human resources experience would lead to being a business owner.  Everything changed when the company I worked for dissolved and opened up the time to pursue a career in writing! Which, as it turns out, needs everything I've learned. I still spend time in schools though...as a volunteer :). Life has a way of working out :)

​

I am currently continuing my education by participating in writing courses, writing forums and meeting with critique groups and here I am today, writing! My favorite overall thing to write is children's picture books (especially funny ones!) but I have a devotional, adult fiction, middle grade and graphic novel in the making.  The best thing to read and share are silly, pun filled jokes! My top three tips for being a writer....write A LOT, read A LOT, observe A LOT!

When my books are available, be sure to look for them at your local bookstore, online at bookshop or request them at your local library :)
