My Story
As a young girl, my love of books exploded. Books provided me with a sense of wonder and escape. Reading provided a relief from the chaos of the world. Even now, as an adult, I still will sit and devour a good book. When I became a mother, I watched my children become inspired by reading stories. It ignited a long-lost fire within me to write.
"Stories touch the soul, interweaving us all."

Don’t let my un-published status make you nervous. Becoming an author is more than JUST becoming published. I can share information on how to write a story, whether it be about plot, characters and anything in between. There’s a learning curve to following your passions and your dreams. I’m more than happy to help you get there!
